  2. Russia invested in Trump’s media company. Who could have seen that coming? /s

  4. That trump has not only survived to become the republican nominee – but in much of the country actually *thrived* – is a glaring testament to just how retched & corrupt America’s political system actually is.

  5. Republicans are working diligently to destroy your America.

  7. Career professional politician (only after he saw rank filthy newt Gingrich do it… ) and a whole shit-load of white, know-nothing, hateful, wannabe Christians follow this 🤡-show down the swamp they all wanna be swimming in!

  9. I still remember his kid telling us they can get all the money they want from Russia.

  12. Glad to know those pieces of shit are also losing money as the stock price drops.

  14. THE next world war is not of one allied set of nations against another but of an axis of wealthy individuals who are in control of enough wealth to either control or wage war from within entire nations against those who remain of the working class in all those nations.

  16. I love how he’s just gathered all the corrupt criminals to his cause

  17. To be expected. Russian infiltrators will help Trump at every chance they get. They want him in more now than ever due to the war in Ukraine.

  19. They knew it would surely be a success under the brilliant leadership of Devin Nunes because his background as a farmer is great training to run a social media company!

  21. This is such an incredibly stupid plan. He’s got a 6 month hold on selling. If the shares drop to zero before then, all their “favors” get transferred to random investors that sell early.

  22. Since this mentions a connection to Russia, it clearly violates the rules of r/politics, from what the Mods told me. If you don’t like this, don’t blame me the messenger. You can debate the merit of their idea if you like. I’m just relaying what I was told by the mods of this sub.

  25. Trump really needs to get some of that Chinese money the Biden crime family are getting.

  27. Someone bought his Washington hotel for 200 million over its actual value a couple of years ago. There are quite a few things the DOJ haven’t bothered to prosecute him for.

  30. Apparently their loans were convertible into stock at the pre-IPO price. Even if they haven’t sold yet they can still more than double their money. If they sold at the peak they made a 300% profit.

  31. Russian-linked trust fund, you say?

    I’m sure Trump is loyal to America.
    Very sure.
    Ultra-mega sure.

  32. So the SEC only cares about money laundering if it’s crypto, foreign state actors buying a presidential candidate through a public company rates little interest.

  33. How this man receives one vote from the American people is insanity, let alone nearly half the population. Come on people!
