How Truth Social's Windfall Won't Help with Trump's Bond. 3-22-24


Listen Later

Even though Trump's social media company Truth Social completed a merger today with a wealthy shell company, it won't make a difference where his bond in the New York Civil fraud case is concerned. Shareholders of Digital World Acquisition Corporation approved the merger with Trump Media & Technology Group, and just in the nick of time. The company is nearly out of cash and the merger means more than $300 million will pour into Trump Media. Trump can't tap into it through. He is prohibited from selling any of his shares or using them as collateral for a loan for the next six months. It looks like Trump has his hand out to the Republican National Committee. Even though the RNC previously said they would not be paying Donald Trump’s legal bills, an invitation to a fundraiser tells the real story. The event in Palm Beach, Florida next month indicates the Save America committee, which Trump uses to collect money for legal fees, will be a recipient of RNC donor money. In case you want to go, it’s between $250k and $815k per person. Some political analysts think Trump needs to be careful not to alienate moderate swing voters. Given his recent comments about Jewish voters and immigrants, it seems he’s not too concerned about offending voters who could sway the election. We welcome journalist and political analyst Michael Shure to discuss it all. Friday ushers in a new crop of Florida craziness. Get ready to pick your favorite with Friday Fabulous Florida! The Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder will side down a rainbow to give us the skinny on the best movie and tv series of the week. All that plus Mark’s Madness continues!
