The Trump Media and Technology Group hasn’t done much yet. Investors still seem to think it’s worth about four times as much as everything else Donald Trump owns.

ver the course of 75 years, Donald Trump amassed a pile of assets—skyscrapers, hotels, golf courses and so on—worth an, after subtracting debt. Then, in practically no time at all, he conjured up a new business, the Trump Media and Technology Group, which hasn’t done much yet but plans to launch a social media company and various other ventures. Investors are already suggesting it’s worth about $10 billion.

The people valuing Trump’s enterprise at this price are everyday stock pickers. They still can’t purchase shares in the Trump Media and Technology Group, but they can buy stock in a pile of cash—also known as a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC—that plans to merge with Trump’s business.

Crazy but true

No-one should be surprised .. Capitalism/Institutionalism/Fascism: “When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.” Frédéric Bastiat

Even if MAGAs go to a new social media platform, it would be an eco chamber for their own content. They'd miss having someone to argue with. Advertisers would be boycotted when they support a platform with racist/xenophobic content. It would be a wash at best for advertisers.
