I don’t care about a list of billionaires, but I just know this guy cares about being on it, so that makes me happy
I like the lists of Billionaires, they will be handy come the revolution.
They’re usually just called menus.
See… people always talk about eating the rich. I’m not convinced they will taste good or that it’s worth the time and the fuel to cook them.
We really need to add a B to the beginning of that phrase. Beat the rich. Over and over again. With huge clubs.
Eating them isn’t about nutrition or taste; It’s about sending a message. Eat a few of them publicly, slowly, and starting at the feet while keeping them alive. Prove it can be done, and that we’re willing to do it. The rest of them will get the message, and straighten out real fucking quick.
The ultimate goal is the redistribution of wealth. Simply beating a billionaire or two isn’t going to accomplish that. No amount of public beating will be brutal enough, because it’s just violence. At a certain point, it’s just your stock standard gore-porn horror movie footage, which we’ve all seen a hundred times. Billionaires can ignore it, because once the initial rage subsides they can run some astroturfed PR campaigns and get back into peoples’ good graces.
Eating them though? That’s a powerful message, because it goes beyond simple anger. It’s violence with intent and purpose behind it. It’s violence fueled not by rage, but by contempt and dehumanization. It’s saying “we don’t even see you as people anymore. You’re nothing to us but prey. A starving dog is loyal to nobody but itself, and you’ve kept us hungry for far too long.”
Like a hit list?
More like a menu.
Nom nom nom
Still waiting for it…
I can’t wait to see the unhinged word vomit against Bloomberg after this.
The woke radical leftist publication Bloomberg you mean?
The WOKE FASCIST MARXIST RADICAL LEFTIST FAILING SO-CALLED PUBLICATION BLOOMBERG, you mean?
I can’t see him saying Marxist, not intentionally anyway
Sad!

I like that I initially thought you linked RDDT.
It’s not doing much better, lol
It’s great to see, but in the context of the above post, Spez and the CFO dumped hundreds of thousands of shares right after the IPO.
Trump… did not.
So you can argue that spez did not come out of that a loser. You can’t make that argument about Trump.
I’ve been watching it for the lulz.
It’s still got a $4.5B market cap, though.
I work at an energy company that has quite literally over a billion in physical infrastructure in the ground right now and its worth less than this glorified Mastadon instance.
He’s baaaaaack!
Its almost time.
These lists just make the problem worse.
The market cap for Truth Social is $4.5B, which is fucking bananas when you consider that this is a home-rolled Mastadon instance that hasn’t even been patched since 2022.
I’m not saying Trump is a billionaire, or even a good businessman, but holy shit how crazy is it that people are trading $35/share for something their grandkids could put together over a long weekend of free time?
The price is based on the size of the cult of delusional racists who worship Donald, it has little to do with the tech. Imagine how much you could charge for ivermectin ads if you can guarantee they’ll be in front of an audience of cultists!
I hardly have to imagine. As a Texas resident with a few friends who own horses, I can say firsthand that the ivermectin lie has cleared stocks from shelves for gullible rubs that was much needed for actual horse medicine

I think you are interpreting this wrong… people are paying $35 a share because one of two reasons:
- they are completely deluded and think of Trump as a literal messiah
- they think $35 a share for a complete slut that would do anything but with the powers of the US Presidency is a bargain
Well, their grandkids may be able to put it together. They themselves still consider it magic…
The tech isn’t what’s valuable, it’s the market reach. That said, the market reach is also shit.
The tech isn’t what’s valuable
Saying this right before my EQ pirate server gets inundated with over a dozen users.
…I should make a instance

When it comes to humans, sometimes they focus more on style, than the substance.
You’d think they’d be more careful with their money, especially these days when there is so little of it to go around, but no, their favorite star tells them otherwise.
Why was he on it in the first place?
He haa been lying about his net worth since the 80’s. It’s all “self-reported” wealth.
He inherited $400 mil from his father and pissed it all away. The rest has been un-repaid loans and one-sided partnerships. He has never actually been a billionaire at all, unless you count debt as net worth.
He’s the Nepo baby of a slumlord.

And to think… He usually has to pay for a woman to beat the shit out of him…
Tres Commas
I’d take Russ over Trump any day.
Bruh. Russia will bail out his shitty scam stock just when he’s ready to sell.
Now just boot him out of the country and we’ll call it good
Why stop there? Boot him out of the planet
Even better
That is going to hurt his overblown ego more than anything else. He is deadly afraid that his supporters might finally realize that the wannabe-emporer is indeed naked.
Only thing more pathetic than Elon Musk is Donald J Trump.
Oh no! Anyway.
Hey this photo makes him look like Jimmy Carter!..no wait, no, it’s just this cat scratching my left eye and bird poop on my right eye. The bird poop makes his hair white. It’s okay I just need to spray soda into both eyes for 15 minutes as described by the CDC for these sort of specific visual hallucination about Jimmy Carter. Very similar to the one about Jim Cary the day when I met putin in his drainage pipe. I thought he was so funny but it was just a bee in my ear and his thick russian phlegm. But that’s a story for another phlegm… nothing rhymes with phlegm that I know of, have you noticed?
Your comment here is sort of a ‘Jackson Pollock’ of comments, sort of a ‘frog in a blender’, if you will.
Thanks, I try my best. Hopefully between now and voting day we don’t get bamboozled into voting Trump. I feel like we could just all vote now, what’s the point of waiting months to allow this asshole to try something else?
aaaaaand POST!
He’s still a billionaire, just not one of the Top 500 yall.
Edit: did anyone read the article?
On Tuesday afternoon, Forbes had Mr Trump as the 653rd richest person in the world with a net worth of $4.8bn.
I see your point, but Forbes methodology for verification isn’t flawless.
If the 4.8 billion dollar value is based on truth social, that number is crashing. If it’s based on his other assets, I don’t have much faith in that value either.
To say Trump exaggerates about the value of his assets would be an understatement. He makes up huge numbers that are nowhere close to reality. The big numbers are used to his advantage when it suits him, and much smaller numbers are reported to the IRS.
A quick search on golf courses came up with this story, though there are many more.
The point is, his actual net worth is a bit of a mystery. If the truth came out, I very much doubt it would be anywhere close to 4.8 billion.
Mr. Trump? A multi-billionaire? The guy who can’t secure a $440m bond? That Mr. Trump? We talking about the same guy here?
There’s a reason he can’t secure that bond, you know. If you total up all of his asset valuations, he’s a billionaire. If you subtract all of the liens, mortgages, and encumbrance he has on those assets, he’s basically broke.
To be fair, and I have no idea why I’m being fair to that jackass, I think I would struggle to put together cash that’s 10% of my net worth, given that most of my net worth is in my home and retirement accounts. I know the math gets a lot different as your net worth goes up, and the biggest difference is he could liquidate assets that he doesn’t need to survive. But still I’m sure it’d wind up costing him more than the $500M or so on paper for the bond.
Hell, given that his “job” is just to be rage tweeting and encouraging racism, if he genuinely thinks he’s gonna weasel his way out of the charges, its probably more cost effective to go to jail for a bit for attention than to sell something on short notice.
Love watching him squirm though.
