If he's so filthy rich, he SHOULD spend his own money

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/%e2%80%9cim-really-rich%e2%80%9d-trump-claims-he-doesnt-even-%e2%80%9cneed-financing%e2%80%9d-as-truth-social-deal-falls-apart/ar-AA11wAbv?li=BBnb7Kz

“I’m really rich”: Trump claims he doesn’t even “need financing” as Truth Social deal falls apart


Trump downplayed the deal ahead of Monday's vote on Truth Social, arguing that the company is "doing really well" despite widely-reported financial struggles. The former president accused the SEC of "trying to hurt" his merger partner and suggested that he may line up private investors instead.

"I don't need financing, 'I'm really rich!'" he wrote. "Private company anyone???"

That way when he filed for bankruptcy for the 7th time, he's the only one that doesn't get paid.

2. Digital World Acquisition Corp . adjourned its shareholder meeting after two minutes

This will be fun to watch




Digital World Acquisition Corp. adjourned its shareholder meeting after two minutes on Tuesday and said it will continue counting votes on whether to delay a merger with former President Donald Trump’s media company.

Shares of DWAC were down 16%.

The special purpose acquisition company had a Thursday deadline to take Trump’s media company and its Truth Social platform public. The SPAC has previously warned that a failure to extend the merger deadline could force DWAC to liquidate.

Earlier in the day, DWAC’s shares had plunged after Reuters reported that it failed to get enough shareholder votes to extend the deadline for its merger with Trump Media and Technology Group. The merger would give Trump’s company a cash infusion. Trump created Truth Social after he was banned from Twitter following the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

Trump Media denied reports of financial strife that surfaced at the end of August. Trump Media and Technology Group told CNBC in a statement that Truth Social is continuing to grow and is bolstered by the recent addition of advertising to the platform.

He's so damn rich, but he's mooching off others to pay his ridiculous legal bills? And he's also not paying his actual bills because his own social media site is tanking. So who's footing his bills? That seems like a fact worth knowing.
