Snarky Disclaimer:
The following performance contains satirical commentary, political rage, and a healthy dose of George Carlin’s ghost punching holes in billionaire bullshit. It’s protected speech, sugar—so don’t clutch your pearls unless they’re crypto-backed.
Okay, class—gather 'round.
Today's topic?
The Truth Social–Bitcoin–SPAC–MagicBeanMachine™.
Or, as it’s known on Wall Street:
“How to turn political fandom into unregulated financial froth!”
Let’s dig into this corporate love letter to capitalism’s swampiest corners.
Trump Media just posted its Q2 results.
You know, that company that does… what? Right. “Free speech social media.”
(Translation: a taxpayer-funded retirement home for Alex Jones memes and erectile dysfunction ads.)
But wait!
According to the press release—and I quote—Trump Media has “amassed over $3.1 billion in financial assets.”
Wow!
Sounds impressive, right?
Until you read the fine print:
💰 $2.4 billion of that came from institutional investors for a "Bitcoin treasury strategy."
So they didn’t earn it.
They didn’t sell anything.
They didn’t build anything.
They sold stock, bought Bitcoin, and called it a business plan.
It's like selling shares in a lemonade stand, then spending all the money on scratch-offs—and when you hit a $50 winner, you declare positive cash flow and call CNBC.
Oh, and who benefits?
Let’s do the math:
-
Trump – owns over 57% of Trump Media stock. That’s a one-way cash funnel straight into his pocket.
- You’re not investing in free speech—you’re paying off a golf course.
-
Devin Nunes – the CEO and former cow-suing congressman. Pulls a salary while bragging about "positive cash flow"—which, by the way, was $2.3 million.
- You spent $2.4 billion to make $2.3 million? That’s not cash flow. That’s lunch money on fire.
-
Institutional speculators – who bought into this clown show because they knew it would pop on name recognition.
- They’ll offload shares to retail bagholders just in time for the crash. (You remember the crash? It’s the part after the “free speech tokens” and “red checkmark” subscriptions.)
And while we’re here—Truth+?
A streaming platform in beta that gives you a red check, lets you edit your “Truths,” and promises a “utility token” to pay for your monthly propaganda drip.
Let’s be honest.
It’s not a social network.
It’s not a media company.
It’s a glorified crypto vending machine for the MAGA base.
And they’ve got you feeding quarters in faster than a drunk uncle at a Trump rally slot machine.
Meanwhile, they posted $900,000 in revenue this quarter.
That’s it.
You could earn more selling Trump NFTs with a Sharpie and a folding table at Comic-Con.
And yet, they act like they’ve conquered Silicon Valley.
They’re not Facebook.
They’re not even MySpace.
They’re fucking RadioShack with Bitcoin.
And guess what happens when Bitcoin tanks?
When those utility tokens lose their “utility”?
When your Truth+ account can’t stream anything but Mike Lindell documentaries and Steve Bannon’s forehead sweat?
Poof.
Gone.
But not for Trump. Not for Nunes.
They already cashed out.
This isn’t innovation.
It’s grift with a white paper.
It’s a meme stock wrapped in a QAnon flag, sprinkled with NFTs and sold to grandma.
So, the next time you hear “Trump Media posted positive cash flow,” remember this:
They made $2.3 million.
They lost $20 million.
They raised $2.4 billion from investors.
They bought Bitcoin.
And they’re calling that a business model.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, fellow Americans—You’re watching capitalism become performance art.
And the clowns are running the tent. 🎪
