Trump sues trump. Why am I not surprised?
I don’t know why they’re surprised; if you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. Especially lying dogs…

This is hilarious. By they time these guys can actually sell their shares this company will be worth a fraction. But make no mistake trump is going to immediately offload the majority of his shares once his six month window is over and leave all the investor bag holders behind for a couple years before the company goes bankrupt.
Maybe it’s not such a good idea to go into business with grifters and con men?
Hilarious. A few days out of the chute and this whole enterprise looks like a joke. Which it is. No one is really expecting to make money either from the stock or the business itself. Except the lawyers maybe, if they don’t get stiffed.
It would be fitting if the lawyers took **EVERYTHING**.
