Eric Trump Says He’d Love to See Some Big Banks ‘Go Extinct’

Eric Trump told attendees at a cryptocurrency conference that he wants some big banks to “go extinct,” echoing complaints from other members of the Trump family about the traditional financial system.

“Honestly, I would love to see some of the big banks go extinct, because, honestly, they deserve it,” Trump said Wednesday while speaking on a panel with his brother, Donald Trump Jr., at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas.
