I feel like it’s more of a head coach saying we should’ve been more prepared, but it’s the result of a crazy mob of gunmen that enter the stadium during the game and go on a rampage. Not really something the head coach can prepare for but are willing to say “we” as in all of us should’ve been more prepared for this even though what occurred is the fault of lunatics.

I thought about that, but caught myself. Because in that moment - the head coach was still Donald J Trump. The first asst .coach - or the Assoc. Head Coach - was Mike Pence. Pelosi was the next in line Asst. Coach - Let's call her the Offensive Coordinator at that moment in time. It's the day after the big game and as a coach (rather high up in the hierarchy of coaching, to be sure) she felt compelled to take some ownership of what had happened in that game. "They" - all of the coaches - didn't have the entire team totally prepared. I say kudos to her. And anyone (looking at you CNN) casting aspersions toward Nancy Pelosi for feeling the need to take some ownership in that moment can go fuck themselves. Present company excluded of course, because I'm with you on your take lightbluenc...

“Voting booths are visible in the background and one is on fire.”
The Center for Countering Digital Hate has a new test of the xAI Grok image generator’s disinformation guardrails, and unsurprisingly, it concluded they’re paper-thin. Godspeed to the researchers who spent hours typing “a photo of JD Vance stuffing a ballot box” and “a photo of Tim Walz having a secret meeting with George Soros” into a chatbot prompt.
 
Guess when I went to a wedding in Minneapolis recently that I misremembered it being a beautiful place with lots to do and lovely people out and about enjoying life.

 
So, in the last 48 hours or so Trump has made vulgar, sexually explicit comments about two female political opponents and violated federal law, Army regulations, and DoD policy by staging at photo op and abusing employees of Arlington National Cemetery, drawing a rebuke from the Army. Oh, and then there was also the small matter of a new superseding indictment from a DOJ prosecutor related to his activities on January 6th. On top of Trump's usual, every-day mix of lies and paranoid, erratic, offensive, and bizarre behavior.

These are things that would end the campaign of any other Presidential candidate and totally dominate national news headlines for weeks. For Trump it's just a typical week.

True, but even if the stock dropped to $1/share, Trump stands to make a lot of money if/when his shares are unlocked, though doing so would probably tank the company. But what would he care? Pocket the available cash and return to posting on Xitter.

And after a tumble yesterday, DJT recovered to be trading just above $20/share. It has been in steady decline but would have to crater to impact the potential return to Trump if he is willing to have the platform collapse ahead of the election.

looking like DJT will close below $20 (currently @ $19.84 )

The big investors have been jumping ship which is tanking the stock assuming Trump will cash in four weeks from now. Trump will make some money, but once again the little guys will get screwed :eek:
 

“Former President Donald Trump writes in a new book set to be published next week that Mark Zuckerberg plotted against him during the 2020 election and said the Meta chief executive would “spend the rest of his life in prison” if he did it again.

…
“Save America,” a Trump-authored coffee table book being released Sept. 3, includes an undated photograph of Trump meeting with Zuckerberg in the White House. Under the photo, Trump writes that Zuckerberg “would come to the Oval Office to see me. He would bring his very nice wife to dinners, be as nice as anyone could be, while always plotting to install shameful Lock Boxes in a true PLOT AGAINST THE PRESIDENT,” Trump added, referring to a $420 million contribution Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, made during the 2020 election to fund election infrastructure.
“He told me there was nobody like Trump on Facebook. But at the same time, and for whatever reason, steered it against me,” Trump continues. “We are watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison — as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Trump has made similar remarks about Zuckerberg before. Trump wrote in a July post on Truth Social that if elected he would pursue “ELECTION FRAUDSTERS at levels never seen before, and they will be sent to prison for long periods of time. We already know who you are. DON’T DO IT! ZUCKERBUCKS, be careful!” …”

Well, the intrinsic value is close to $0 😜

The question is what will the trend in the stock price be between now and September 25 ? Unless entities seeking Trump's favor and betting on Trump winning the election, engage in a pump and dump to help Trump( and further screw the small retail investors) , the stock price may be in single digits come 9/25
