With all the cases involving Trump that are now in the news we tend to forget the previous scams he perpetrated on people, but managed to avoid being punished for by delay and/or declaring bankruptcy, or otherwise closing the business. Trump University was a case in point. Quietly closed down and settlements agreed with some who he had scammed , early in his first year as POTUS. As he was attracting so much controversy at the time hardly anyone noticed. Perhaps this is the intention this time. Ride it out, delay, appeal and complain until he can either close the cases down, pardon himself or quietly pay people off when everyone is more concerned with bigger stupidity by him. Of course this is all just a witch-hunt. Everything he does is perfect. So you've joined the ranks of those convinced of his towering business genius.

Good to see the Donald making a few billion from his latest smart business venture, sticking up two fingers to the main stream social media who hate him
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

He holds paper that theoretically is worth a lot but is generally believed to be practically worthless based on the true value of the business. A business that is predicted to collapse within a year. It’s only valued that high because his supporters have bought in heavily without regard to actual value having been encouraged to do so to try to help him pay the huge sums his legal cases have cost him. Those supporters will lose their money. Whether he manages to keep any of the scam depends on how quickly he can sell the shares he holds but my understanding is he must wait 6 months before he can sell any. So the only immediate benefit would be if the shares could be used as security for a loan. Do you think anyone will lend on something believed to ultimately be worthless?

Trump has bluffed the buffers. Must have some Irish in him. They bring politically motivated charges against him and his business. This politically motivated his supporters to invest in him. Classicly comical.

You can probably say that about most social media companies they exist at the whim of the glitterati who like shiny new baubles and will jump ship without a backward glance. MySpace and Friends Reunited spring to mind.

Classicly comical. For the umpteenth time the charges aren’t political. They are real. If they were political they would be thrown out. The only time political influence might be seen is when they reach the Supreme Court. He is scamming his gullible supporters. Again. He is doing it every time he goes to court.

Is your opinion, I'm actually agreeing with you that the value of Social media companies is nebulous regardless who owns them. All it takes is for the Kardasians and a few over celebs to say they are leaving t***ter or Facegit and their fans like lemmings will follow. Alan Sugar called one social media company "no profit.com"
