Will Trump Achieve a Golden Age?

Peter slams Biden's mass pardons, which constitute a blatant abuse of presidential powers:
The problematic aspect of these pardons is people are not being pardoned of a crime that they've been convicted of, or even a crime that they've been charged with. People are being pardoned who have never been charged with anything. Basically what Biden is saying is if any of these individuals did anything wrong at any point over the last 11 years, I pardon them for whatever they might have done that I don't even know that they did, that somebody might discover that they did, which I think is a real abuse of the whole system of a pardon to just preemptively pardon people.
Not to be outdone in the controversy department, Peter explained why he considers Trump's creation of a "meme coin" both unseemly and unwise:
But it's not just former President Biden, I think, that was acting inappropriately in the days leading up to the inauguration. Donald Trump also, I think, was very inappropriate in the launching of his meme coin, the Trump coin, which came out on Friday evening. And just as inappropriate, the Melania coin, which I think came out the following day, was it Saturday or Sunday, I forget, but over the weekend, both these coins came out. And I really think it is shameless. I think it diminishes the office of the president for Donald Trump to be profiting in this way off of his presidential win.
Some argue it's just harmless hype, but Peter warns that many Trump supporters will be duped by this coin:
Some people have already made a tremendous amount of money. The people that got in really early that were prepared for it and knew about it, bought them and flipped them and made millions and millions of dollars. But whatever money is made equals the money that's lost by a lot of other people. The people that voted for Trump, the people that Donald Trump supposedly cares about, a lot of them are going to lose money.
