I am 100% convinced that Trump Media is Trump's endgame graft. He stands to make literally billions upon billions of dollars from this unabashed scam, and I think selling MAGA suckers shares in his MAGA "Social media platform" might be the entire point of his political career thus far. He's long talked about wanting to start a media company, and I think the whole point of his run at the presidency was to validate whether people would pay attention to him at scale, which unfortunately has been thoroughly proven by this point, so now it's all about converting that attention into cash the most effective way possible for that's only accessible to the world's wealthiest folks, which is selling suckers shares in some pump and dump scheme.

Poor people run scams on the street, the wealthy run them on stock exchanges.
