Trump’s Typical Memorial Day Message

“Happy Memorial Day to all, including the scum that spent the last four years trying to destroy our country through warped radical left minds, who allowed 21,000,000 million people to illegally enter our country, many of them being criminals and the mentally insane, through an open border that only an incompetent president would approve, and through judges who are on a mission to keep murderers, drug dealers, rapists, gang members, and released prisoners from all over the world in our country so they can rob, murder, and rape again — all protected by these USA-hating judges who suffer from an ideology that is sick and very dangerous for our country.”

— President Trump’s typically uplifting Memorial Day message, delivered on Truth Social.

For MAGA Investors, Taking Stock in Trump’s Truth Social Is Not About Returns

$3.5 billion

The Washington Post notes that supporters of Donald Trump “investing in Truth Social is less a business calculation than a statement of faith in the former president and the business traded under his initials, DJT. … Even the company’s plunging stock price — and the chance their investments could get mostly wiped out — doesn’t seem to have shaken that faith. The company has lost $3.5 billion in value since its public debut last month.”

Trump’s Truth Social Just Another Trump Grift

“It’s been an inauspicious start for TRUTH Social, the former president’s new Twitter knock-off, helmed by bovine ex-Congressman Devin Nunes. … Like the other Trump schemes—airlines, steaks, board game, university, magic pills, magazine, etc. etc. etc. … — from the jump TRUTH had all the marks of a media buzz Potemkin Village that allows the first family of grift to cash in, but doesn’t deliver anything of value to the marks who got swept up in the hype.”
