ToggleThe Trump family continues to expand its real estate business in the Middle East
Eric stated that the family has been expanding into the Middle East for over 20 years, and currently has multiple development projects underway in Oman and Saudi Arabia, including golf courses and luxury hotels. He emphasized that Abu Dhabi will be the next region the family will enter.
He was amazed by the rapid development of Middle Eastern countries, particularly the remarkable changes in Dubai from 2008 to the present, and noted that the local developers are very friendly and fully support the family, in stark contrast to many Western countries.
After Trump's return, the Middle East reacted enthusiastically
Eric mentioned that the election of his father, Donald Trump, received enthusiastic support from Middle Eastern countries. He shared his experience of meeting thousands of people at the Abu Dhabi F1 racing event, where everyone expressed gratitude for Trump's victory and believed that the strength and leadership of the United States are crucial for the world.
He pointed out that the Trump administration's concept of "peace and prosperity" has been widely recognized by Middle Eastern leaders and local people, and they expect the new government to continue promoting peace and cross-border economic cooperation, avoiding unnecessary conflicts and resource waste.
Make the United States the world's largest cryptocurrency capital market
Eric stated that he and his father are very supportive of cryptocurrencies. He pointed out that Middle Eastern countries have invested billions of dollars in developing cryptocurrencies and digital technologies, and if the United States does not keep up, it will be left behind. He reiterated that his father will strive to make the United States the global center of cryptocurrencies, promoting a faster and more efficient financial system, and hopes to use blockchain technology to replace the outdated traditional financial system.
Transparent cryptocurrency regulation is the key, criticizing Gary Gensler as excessive
Regarding regulation, Eric believes that the cryptocurrency industry does not actually oppose regulation, but only needs clear and transparent rules. He criticized the policies of former SEC Chairman Gary Gensler as too excessive, continuously suppressing innovation, which is ultimately not beneficial to the United States. Eric hopes that the new government can establish a fair and viable regulatory framework, setting a global example for the United States.
Calling Musk the modern Einstein, helping to promote the development of the United States
Regarding technology and policy, Eric highly praised Elon Musk and called him the "modern Einstein". Eric emphasized Musk's expertise in efficiency and innovation, which will greatly influence the future policy direction of the United States, and stated that Musk's participation will help promote the improvement of AI, cryptocurrencies, and government operational efficiency, making resource allocation more in line with actual needs.
The Trump family's business and the government are clearly distinguished, and they continue to layout globally
Regarding the potential conflict of interest between the family's business and the government, Eric emphasized that the Trump family's business operations were established many years before his father's candidacy, and that Trump himself is currently not involved in the company's operations. Eric promised that in the future, the family's business and the government will remain separate, and the family's real estate business will continue to operate globally.
Although some have suggested that the Trump family needs to stop cross-border transactions, Eric believes this is very unrealistic, as the Trump family's real estate business has already spread globally, including Ireland, Scotland, the Middle East, and South America. He stressed that the family's business will comply with regulations and will not abandon the family's global business layout.
Eric stated that cryptocurrencies played an important role in his father's election victory, and many American cryptocurrency holders enthusiastically voted for Trump, feeling that they had been overlooked. He believes that the cryptocurrency industry will become an undeniable force in American politics, and will also provide new momentum for the United States' leading position in technology and the economy.
