Robert Kiyosaki, the financial author behind Rich Dad Poor Dad, has generated buzz by declaring on social media that Donald Trump will win in future elections.
He links this prediction to the events of January 6, 2021, claiming that Trump had requested the National Guard’s presence to secure the Capitol but that this request was ignored by key figures, including General Mark Milley and Nancy Pelosi.
Kiyosaki suggests that these actions contributed to the turmoil of that day, offering an alternative viewpoint to the prevailing narrative that Trump incited the violence.
Simultaneously, Vice President Kamala Harris has publicly endorsed the cryptocurrency sector, expressing her intention to support growth in digital assets and artificial intelligence. Her stance diverges from some Democratic colleagues and may weaken the anti-crypto agenda associated with figures like Senator Warren.
As the election nears, both Trump and Harris are courting the crypto community. Trump has recently launched “Official Trump Coins,” collectibles aimed at celebrating his legacy. However, his family’s DeFi project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), faces scrutiny amid regulatory concerns raised by industry figures like Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson.
In the political arena, Speaker Mike Johnson has proposed a new funding strategy that excludes the Trump-backed SAVE Act, seeking bipartisan support to prevent a government shutdown just days before the October 1 deadline. This political maneuvering unfolds as Kiyosaki anticipates Trump’s predicted triumph.
