The Donald Trump Score Card

Trump’s net worth plunges $1 billion as media stock tumbles | CNN Business

excerpt:

"While Trump Media made just $4.1 million in revenue in 2023, rival X (formerly known as Twitter) raked in more than 100 times that much — $665 million — in 2013, ahead of its initial public offering in November 2013. Twitter also generated just over $5 billion in revenue in the final year before it was taken private by Elon Musk.

In fact, Truth Social’s financials are comparable to that of The Messenger, the upstart digital news outlet that imploded earlier this year. Citing an investor deck, CNBC reported in January that The Messenger posted 2023 revenue of $3.8 million and a net loss of $43 million.

The problem for Trump Media is its main product — Truth Social — is shrinking."

Navarro's loss on Presidential Records Act appeal may warrant attention from Trump, Cannon

excerpt:

"Under the PRA, Navarro was considered a “covered” employee, meaning under the law, he is forbidden from sending, receiving, forwarding or otherwise creating presidential records using nonofficial means. The exception would be if he sent an unofficial message and copied his official account or another official no later than 20 days later and then, still, return records at the end of tenure."

 

Navarro can try to argue that he is able to retain such presidential information because Trump simply thought about allowing Navarro to retain the information.

Or, even better for Navarro, that the government property became his property the moment he exited the White House with it.

 

Trump got Hankey to give him the money to post the $175 million bond in the NY fraud judgment.

Hankey is the largest shareholder in Axos Bank in San Diego.

Pump-and-dump investors cash out on 'crazy' Trump fans buying up Truth Social stock

excerpt:

"Al Shalloudi's bet has already paid off, given that he bought up shares when they were trading at $37 a piece and then sold them off last week when the price hit $65.

"It was a no-brainer," he tells Reuters. "You buy the stock, wait for Trump's fan base to hear about it, and enjoy your profit.""

 

Article from 2022 about how Axos refinanced Trump's loans that were coming due.


Axos, the Trump Tower Bank, Is Almost as Shady as Trump Is

excerpt:

"Axos an unusual lender, steeped in controversy. Its CEO and top investors have strong financial ties to the GOP. And Axos appears to be solidifying its position as the Trump-family banker, having previously stepped in as a financier for the family company of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.

The deal comes at a time when the Trump Org. faces legal peril from city and state regulators in New York. It offers a window into the Trump company’s financial standing, given that it had to turn to a politically connected online bank — and not a major Wall Street institution — to refinance the loan on the company’s most iconic property. And the deal creates the possibility for yet another glaring conflict of interest should Donald Trump run for president again in 2024."

 

He really needs to be careful throwing what he actually says about him..but I guess the NBC lawyers have his script carefully worded. I find it laughable that every late night host blasts tRump, every single night.

Fox has been extremely desperate lately to try to find anything to criticize Biden and praise Trump.

The Easter Egg Roll rules that Fox was complaining about were made in the 1970's which has nothing to do with Biden. Fox wrongly accused Biden of making the rules which Fox thinks are too secular. In the meantime, Trump is selling $60 bibles during the week of Easter (as if that somehow is a virtue).

The transgender recognition day that Fox was complaining about was set to be March 31 during the first year of Obama's administration. It happened to fall on Easter in 2024.

Fox was complaining that Biden did a fundraiser in NY the same day Trump was doing a sordid photo-op in NY standing in front of police officers during the wake of a slain NY police officer (who could just as well have been one of the 5 police officers who died related to Trump's riot at the Capitol and 140 police officers who were injured. The deaths and injuries were because of Trump.. Trump never offered any condolence to them. He didn't attend the wake of police officer Sicknick who collapsed the evening of Trump's riot and died the next day. Sicknick's body was at the Capitol for viewing. Trump could have attended but didn't.

 

RFK Jr. says Biden is bigger threat to democracy than Trump.

RFK Jr is frustrated that Facebook and Instagram had suspended his accounts for posting conspiracy narratives.


RFK Jr. argues that Biden is a bigger threat to democracy than Trump | CNN Politics

excerpt:

“With a straight face Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said that Joe Biden is a bigger threat to democracy than Donald Trump because he was barred from pushing conspiracy theories online,” DNC senior adviser Mary Beth Cahill said in a statement. “There is no comparison to summoning a mob to the Capitol and promising to be a dictator on day one. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. laid to rest tonight any doubts that he’s a spoiler candidate by pushing his MAGA talking points in prime time.”

 

SNL roasts Trump over bizarre attempt to sell Bibles

excerpts:

"At the start of SNL, which aired on 30 March, actor James Austin Johnson appeared as Trump, telling the audience: “That’s right, it’s Easter. The time of year when I compare myself to Jesus Christ. That’s just the thing I do now, and people seem to be OK with it. I’m going to keep doing it."


"Meanwhile, Meyers quipped: “Yep, the guy who’s about to go on trial for paying hush money to cover up an affair with a porn star is selling Bibles and, because it’s a Trump Bible, most of the 10 Commandments are blacked out.”"

 

...with a Sharpie pen.

Virginia community in chaos over school board member's MAGA riot arrest: report

excerpt:

"Adkins already has a history of trouble with the law, pleading no contest to a hit-and-run charge in Florida in 2014, and paying a $25 fine for public intoxication in Prince William County in 2022. He also has a history of controversial social media posts, attacking former president "Hussein Obama" for "support[ing] Muslims" and calling school shooting survivor David Hogg a liar."

 

The GOP controlled by Trump has tried to oust everyone that it feels isn't loyal to Trump. They did it when they already had a slim margin. It's a foolish mentality.
