One important caveat:

As hes currently drowning in a sea of legal bills, the merger may become a critical source of cash-on-hand for the former president, with one major caveat: He would only be able to cash out on his shares six months after the union officially goes public.

Who decided it's worth 3B? Like people would have to be willing to pay what he thinks it's worth, and that number will probably get lower and lower before he's able to sell.

He will not, in fact, net billions.

And all of the joy and excitement gave the poor former president a fatal heart attack. How sad.

Knowing Trump I wouldn't be surprised at all if he sold a few shares at a super high price tag and then had it valued at 3 bil.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Twitter is only currently worth like 10-15 billion, Musk paid 45 billion or something for it, and you're telling me that a direct copycat is somehow worth as much as Twitter, or even slightly less? Nothing makes sense.

It's a merger. Unless I read it wrong the 3b comes mostly from DWA Corp., not Truth Social.

Truth Social is going public. In a Friday vote, the social media companys blank-check funding partner Digital World Acquisition Corp. approved a merger with Trump Media & Technology Group.

Given the current stock market value of Digital World Acquisition Corp., the combination of the two companies could net Trump a staggering $3.6 billion in shareholder value.

From what I gathered when reading about Musk's wealth a few years back, Trump would have to get SEC approval to sell anything of magnitude.

Yes, if everybody has to wait 6 months it'll instantly tank the moment sales are opened.

So really, it's a news grabby headline that he's worth billions now, but in actuality , it'll be tougher for this to actually bail him out.

He cant sell when he needs it (he needs it right now lol), and if he tries to sell it all , it'll plummet in value.

Technically he could try to get a loan on it. But the lender would need to believe the share wont be some pump and dump, which it probably will be.

Not only that; a direct copycat that exclusively exists for Trumpers, when Twitter has already become a right-wing cesspool

There would be nothing funnier than Trump overvaluing his asset as collateral for a loan to pay his legal obligations for being convicted of overvaluing his asset as collateral for a loan.

I really doubt he cares.

This is like life and death to him. That money is the only thing stopping him from jail time and everything of his getting taken away. I'm sure he would smash truth social like a piggybank if he needs too. He's not even banned on real Twitter anymore anyways.
