Trump’s new stock deal is just another pig in a poke I don’t give investment advice. But I assure you that a company with $3.4 million in revenue and $49 million in losses over the past nine months is not worth $5 billion. Buy into shares of any company with those numbers and you are certain to be taken for a sucker. That Donald Trump will be the one doing the bamboozling means that investors in his soon-to-be-public media company might as well be making a political donation to his campaign or contributing to a Trump legal defense fund instead. This scheme is unfolding in the plain light of day, and securities regulators are powerless to do anything about it. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/03/25/trump-truth-social-stock-2024/

As it’s laden with the radioactive idiocy of the MAGA cult, who knows how they will respond when it starts tanking. They may try to drive it back up to help their lord and savior at their own peril. There is no good way to play this thing. I’d sooner send all my money to a Nigerian Prince I know who really needs help than invest in this.

After paying this money for Trump, I imagine Putin will really pull out all the stops to get TFG elected. I would expect full on election hacking attempts by the GRU in addition to massive disinformation campaign in the coming months. Trump will no doubt try to rig this election.

There's a sucker born every minute and it is most likely a MAGA GOP cultist. Go ahead morons. Buy your "Bible" from the Grifter. “Happy Holy Week!” Trump’s post said. “Let’s Make America Pray Again. As we lead into Good Friday and Easter, I encourage you to get a copy of the God Bless The USA Bible.” He tagged musician Lee Greenwood in the post because the “God Bless the USA” singer is also touted as an endorser on the product’s webpage. The promoted Bible has not only the standard books, but also a few additions including the Constitution (“which I’m fighting for every single day very hard,” Trump says in a video attached to the post), the Pledge of Allegiance and, as the webpage touts, the “[h]andwritten chorus to ‘God Bless The USA’ by Lee Greenwood.” It was originally slated for release in 2021, but an outcry from a number of prominent Christians derailed the rollout. That was then. The current website for the book includes an FAQ that addresses the question of how the former president benefits from the partnership. It assures visitors that no money from the sale of the Bibles will go to Trump’s political campaign. Instead, “GodBlessTheUSABible.com uses Donald J. Trump’s name, likeness and image under paid license from CIC Ventures LLC, which license may be terminated or revoked according to its terms.” CIC Ventures, though, is a conduit to Trump — personally, if not politically. In his financial disclosure released last year, he's identified as the company's “manager, president, secretary and treasurer” and the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust is identified as a 100 percent owner of the business. The same entity also receives royalties from his book “A MAGA Journey” and speaking engagements. The Associated Press asked how much Trump was making on the deal without receiving a response. In retrospect, we might have predicted this particular business venture. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/03/26/trump-bible-sales-money/

This is not a new suit. It is a Declaration (or an affidavit in federal court under 28 USC 1746) in support of Carroll's opposition to the Grifter's motion for a new trial or, if a new trial is not granted, remittitur. The purpose of remittitur is to give a trial court the ability to correct an inequitable damage award or verdict without having to order a new trial. .
