Excellent, informative article. But it underscores how well and easily Trump’s grifts continue to work for him. Maybe not easily in layman’s terms. Just the fact that few other people - immoral, amoral, should-be-in-jail lawbreakers - can continue an open con, abetted by millions of cult members, including high-placed judges and the like.

If I were Trump I would get out of Real Estate and stick with Virtual scams. It appears the SEC and the Justice systems in America is a better place to avoid consequences through time. Crime does not pay as well as Time.

Great story. I followed the accounting - but I'm an accountant. Hope others see it clearly.

Update:

DJT (aka Trump Media & Technology Group Corp, aka Truth Social) drops to it’s 2024/03/22 price, wiping out all the gains since merger, less than 50% of its recent peak of $79.

This wipes out anyone still holding from a purchase from 2021/10/22-2022/06/10 when it was trading in the $43-97 range.

Probably not a good idea to take shares as collateral for anything.

Forbes reports it has a book value of less than $2/share, down from the $10 initial buy-in which was only worth $8.
