    Truth Social operator Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) revealed earlier this month that it had burned through an apocalyptic $712.1 million last year — while only making $3.7 million. The company’s alarming financials did little to buoy waning investor enthusiasm, with shares continuing a months-long plunge that reached an all-time low last week.

    Somehow, the situation has only gotten even more dire since then, with shares dipping well below $9. TMTG was going for as little as $8.50 on Thursday morning, a stunning loss of over 50 percent across the last six months and a drop from even the miserly figures it traded at earlier this week.

    It’s a far cry of the venture’s record high of just shy of $80 shortly after it merged with a blank check acquisition company in March 2024, a move allowing it to be publicly listed under Trump’s initials, DJT.

    So I guess bots can’t be programmed to circle-jerk each other indefinitely quite yet. 

    Good to know.

    A man who somehow managed to bankrupt a casino has another failed venture?

    Naaaah /s

    Where did they spend $700M? How much if that ended up in the pockets of Trump and his friends?

  5. Trump supporters will still say that he is a success and that everything he does is a complete success. Even though the exact opposite is true.

    He’s probably one of the best examples of “failing upward” I can think of.

    Heck, it is getting more affordable. It has come down from a price to sales ratio of 2000 to a P/S of only 686 now. Buy the Dip! /S

  7. Maybe he could post the unredacted Trump Files with special guest Epstein there – that would generate traffic.

    Wow. I can’t believe people are losing money investing in a money-laundering operation.

    TS was launched basically as a social media platform for one single user after Don Trumpleone was banned from Twitter and other social media platforms after the January 6 Capitol attack. Not surprising it doesn’t have staying power with such a narrow basis for existing in the first place.

    Well, there is a limited market for their only product, which is of course Bullshit.

    This is what happens to all trump companies. He doesn’t run the country, why would anyone expect he runs any company his name is attached to. How it goes. Someone paid him to put his stupid name on it and that pumped up the company short term. Everyone with two brain cells dumped it and now it’s bleeding out. Anyone holding the bag is stupid.

    How could there possibly be one person on this planet who isn’t sick to death of this embarrassing dimwitted clown and his boring grifter nonsense?
