I posted this here for a reason. On another forum I post in regularly this has been a really hot topic with dozens of people participating but not mentioned here. I was curious if this demographic had an opinion so I asked. Just interested about the opinion of this group.

Again, if you are offended by my occasional posts just let me know and I'll avoid the forum all together even though I said I would be checking in from time to time.
I think you should hang around here. Ignore all the haters.

Trump trying to cash out some while he can. Maybe he can then pay his own legal fees instead of asking for donations or getting the RNC to chip in.

The haters don’t bother me, if they did I would have left years ago. Just volunteering to stop posting if it’s too distracting to the group.

My experience with stocks is VERY limited. That said, association with Trump, or lack of association with Trump, is not present in my decision tree.

Truth be told, I'd invest in whatever Nancy Pelosi invests in.

Trump Media Stock Plummets On Plans To Issue Millions Of New Shares

The company, backed by former President Donald Trump, filed a "preliminary prospectus" Monday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to offer 21.49 million shares of common stock, issuable "upon the exercise of warrants."

Trump Media cannot issue the additional shares until a registration statement with the SEC goes into effect while stock warrants allow the holder to buy shares at a certain price within a specific time frame.

The company is also looking for approval of the resale of up to 146.1 million shares from "selling securityholders," which includes Donald Trump and ARC Global Investments, according to the federal filing.


DJT shares have dropped more than 50% since their conversion.

Anytime Trump is mentioned, it is political, whether it is you or anybody else who brings it up.

Saying it's not political doesn't make it so.

Stick around, it's always entertaining when an anti-Trump thread is made. You knew how this thread would go. What I would prefer not to see is when you post in a non-political thread and members bring up your Trump hate.

Any chance he gets, he speaks poorly of Trump who is far less corrupt than Mittens, who he had a love affair with.

Just stop pretending that you're not being political when it's obvious that you are. "Let your freak flag fly."

Sounds like the securities industry doing what the securities industry does.

If you don't like the security, don't buy it. It really is that simple.

A major part of the problem with political activists is that they really think when they present information that they are being objective and impartial and really just informing others of some factoid or other.....when the exact opposite is true and the reality is far different.

Cue Rachael Maddow doing the "big reveal" on Trump's stolen 2005 tax returns
just keeping the public informed ? Right ?

And then she finds out he paid $38 million in Federal taxes that year....the look on her face will never get old..
