Not savvy about the stock market, but I have a question.
If Trump sells 114 million shares, where does the money come from to buy those shares. The article says Trump stands to gain $2 billion. Does it all come from Trump Media? Trump Media has barely made a profit; how could they afford to pay for all that stock. Where does the 2 Billion come from?

Why did the woke Joe Brandon economy destroy my retirement savings? (Note: I have 75% of my retirement savings in Trump Media stock).
The thing nobody is talking about is that the stock is entirely dependent on his election chances.
Take a step back and think about that.
It’s all of us admitting Trump’s going to abuse the office of presidency for personal gain.
