People are starting to realize everything he says is a joke? I can’t imagine actually trusting an investment to anything he touches.

No, people do not. Roughly 50 % would still vote him.

Less than 30%. A full third of the USA can’t be bothered to vote at all

Don’t forget the gerrymandering and efforts to make it unreasonably difficult for people to vote.

remember, less than 50% of people who voted voted for him. Over a million more people voted for Hillary than Trump. Largest loss in both % and people in history, I think (for a winning presidential election).

Yeah, unfortunately I’m aware. Of course it’s just making it more obvious every day that 50% of the population are below the average intelligence.

Well yeah, that’s how averages work. But what isn’t obvious is why so many trump followers are intentionally and proudly ignorant, going so far as to attack education as being nothing but indoctrination

There’s a big overlap between trump followers and conspiracy theorists

I am a bit surprised. I figured it would be an easy way for fat cats to pay off Donnie’s massive debts and make him look like a big shot.

I’d love to be the fly on the wall when the top GOPs meet up with the main donors.

It feels like someone is pumping the stock up.

Not your average small business owner either, someone with weight is basically defying every metric of long term/short term investment on a stock that has done nothing but depreciate in value over the past year.

On a product, no one uses.

And said, “That’s worth at least as much as Amazon.”

Trump has people trying to get his base to buy the stock with the express purpose of pumping it up to give him more assets to work with to fund his legal battles.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the SEC is currently investigating it because they haven’t been trying to hide it at all.

Blackrock may have deep pockets but they’re not that idiotic.

They are corrupt and if they want to help Trump get into office so their shady investments can continue then it wouldn’t cost them even pocket change to pump up trump stocks. It’s such a small amount of money to them they probably assigned an intern to the account.

Trump selling truth social stock was so that foreign entities could legally give him money so he could pay the bail for the NY case.

Doesn’t need to, it’s asset that can be used for collateral.

I think in this case there was a contractual timelock blocking that too unless he gets an exception approved (don’t remember all the details)
