my hunch is that the trump family saw the incredible amounts of money Howard Lutnick was making for doing nothing other than looking the other way while running the money launderer's favorite bank (the stablecoin Tether) and decided they had to get in on the action (Tether is by far the most profitable company in the history of the world on a per employee / per expenses basis, something like 1,000x more profitable than Nvidia, Goldman Sachs, or Blackrock on that metric)
