Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Honestly I don't believe for a second that he actually has the money. I just don't think he can handle people (HIS people) knowing that he's flat fucking broke and at the end of his rope.
Monday we'll find out if Schrodinger's cash was in the box or not.
He’s not broke. TruthSocial is about to go public via SPAC and make him about $3.3B. Company will trade under ticker DJT.

This is all a nice distraction to rile his base.
I don't have that kind of money to risk, but this seems like a great opportunity to short a stock.
Not sure who was making that value projection, but if it was a trump-involved party, you can definitely count on that being over inflated bullshit.
We all need to stop regurgitating trump headlines/talking points verbatim without attempting to add some context.
Yeah honestly it's hard to believe it could be worth that much.
If he died it would become worthless.
What a dumb investment.
He can't cash that out in time to help with this, and what bail bondsman is going to take shares of a social media company as collateral?
He gets shares, which they value at that price now. It’s not a successful social media network. The price may drop once floated. He can’t touch the shares for 6 months. Without being propped up, it may be dead by then, although depending on launch, it may still be viable at that point as the election will still be ongoing. However, if he crashes and burns (jail, insovlency) before then, it could also crash and burn. He’s still in his Icarus phase.
S no, he doesn’t have 3 billion lying around. We also don’t know his debts, which may also be billions.
DJT's public offering needs to be pushed out past the first or second week of May in order to screw Donnie over. He can't cash out any shares for six months, or use those shares as collateral for six months either.
If he loses in November, that stick becomes worthless.
