Trump’s Offer to Assist VP Harris Sparks XRP Funding Proposal – Could Ripple’s Success Be Her Financial Solution?
In an unexpected development, President-elect Donald Trump recently offered Vice President Kamala Harris a lighthearted suggestion to help tackle her campaign’s $20 million debt. Amid the social media discussion that followed, one user proposed a novel solution: Harris could consider leveraging her XRP holdings to close the financial gap.
The idea gained attention as Ripple’s legal dispute with the SEC approaches a resolution. A favorable ruling for Ripple could lead to a substantial rise in XRP’s value, potentially allowing Harris to address her campaign debt without external support.
Former SEC attorney Marc Fagel even highlighted that Harris, as a retail investor, would face no SEC restrictions in selling her XRP, as the regulatory focus is on Ripple as the issuer, not on individual holders.
With regulatory clarity for XRP on the horizon, this could be an opportune moment for Harris, particularly given the prior $10 million XRP donation to her campaign fund by Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen. Should XRP experience a rally, Harris may find herself with a financial boost, offering a potential solution to her campaign debt.
