Fox News’ My View took a sharp turn into Bitcoin territory in its latest episode on Saturday night. Lara Lea Trump dedicated an entire episode to the future of digital assets, featuring none other than Strategy’s chairman Michael Saylor, President Donald Trump, White House Crypto Czar David Sacks, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

Saylor took center stage, sharing how he stumbled upon Bitcoin and how it changed his company’s fate. He later posted, “On Sunday night, Fox News’ hit show My View with Lara Lea Trump was devoted to Bitcoin and digital assets, using the words of Donald Trump, Crypto Czar David Sacks, Treasury Sec Scott Bessent, and yours truly to educate its mainstream audience on the power and promise of this new technology.”

Trump’s Bitcoin vision and economic policies take focus

The episode opened with Lara addressing the economic wreckage of the past four years—inflation, rising debt, and federal spending. She blamed the Biden-Harris administration for increasing spending by $300 billion in its final months. The national debt now stands at $36 trillion, with high interest rates squeezing businesses and taxpayers alike.

Then, Donald Trump’s voice took over. He declared, “We are going to take in hundreds of billions of dollars… become so rich you won’t know where to spend that money.” He promised a Bitcoin-friendly future, calling it “America’s next big industry”.

The show highlighted 10,000 manufacturing jobs added in February, and $115 billion cut in wasteful spending. Trump claimed this was just the beginning. “Last year, I promised to make America the Bitcoin superpower of the world,” he said, doubling down on plans to integrate Bitcoin into the national economy.

Viewers had questions. A caller from India, Stefan, asked, “What are your hopes for crypto under a second Trump administration?” Lara responded, “My hopes are likely the same as yours—for American prosperity to thrive once again.” She reinforced Trump’s vision, saying America must lead in Bitcoin innovation.

Michael Saylor gave the audience a Bitcoin reality check, as he explained in the snippet why it’s the strongest financial asset on the planet and why governments need to take it seriously.

“We realized the dollar was inflating, and cash was losing value. Bitcoin is the only asset that holds purchasing power long-term,” said Saylor.

A segment of the My View episode featured everyday people reacting to Bitcoin. Many admitted they didn’t understand it, some called it “sketchy”, while others said they were long-term holders waiting for big gains.

Lara sent a team to New York City to ask regular people what they thought about crypto. Some were skeptical. Others were already deep in the game.

One man summed it up: “I don’t understand Bitcoin, but I know one thing—banks aren’t my friend. If Bitcoin gives me freedom, I’ll take it.” Another said, “I bought crypto years ago, and I’m holding. In ten or twenty years, we’ll see where it goes.”
