A video released by "Fox News" showed that Trump purchased several burgers with Bitcoin. After completing the payment, he said, "This is a historic moment," and then distributed the burgers to customers in the bar. "This is a Crypto Burger," he told the enthusiastically cheering crowd.

When asked by reporters at the scene what he thought of the Federal Reserve's (Fed) interest rate cut of 2%, Trump responded that it showed that the U.S. economic situation was "very bad." If not, then the Fed was playing "political tricks." .
