“Stollen”? Now he’s saying the election was a delicious holiday bread?

Take a look in the Pussy Ass Bitch, I mean Trump Schadenfreude thread, for more info. It started about 24 hours ago. Comedy gold. And if the right wants to bitch about free speech being taken away, maybe they should take a look at this as an actual case. The POTUS asking Twitter to remove a mean tweet. ---

Yup, that’s me feeling. If its being sold as a collector’s item its not a collector’s item. ---

While checking out at DWAC’s slock price (flirting with a new low) I came across this little nugget that warmed my heart cockles. > **[Trump's Shady Media Shell Company Could Lose Its Place on the Stock Market](https://gizmodo.com/donald-trump-truth-social-nasdaq-stock-market-1850172813)** > > Digital World Acquisition Corp. hasn't paid the necessary fees to keep its position on Nasdaq, according to an SEC filing. Turns out that among the bills that Trumps company hasn’t paid are those fees required to keep it listed on Nasdaq. They are appealing and will probably come up with the money avoid actually being kicked off, but still, not a good look. This article also goes into a number of other company woes, and so is worth a read for any schadenfreude fans. ---

Gotta be honest, I thought Trump would be back on Twitter long before this. It’d be funny if it were because he thinks Musk is an incompetent loser for the problems Twitter is having. ---

The idea of Musk ending up blowing up Twitter technologically a few days after he readmits Trump politically would be schweet, schweet irony indeed. ---

> [@Leaper](#): > > Gotta be honest, I thought Trump would be back on Twitter long before this. If his SPAC holds out, Trump’s exclusive deal with Truth runs out in June. Since the company has lost over 80% of it’s value, isn’t paying it’s bills and now consists of a PO box instead of an office, I’m guessing he’ll be out immediately. His return to Twitter may be what Musk needs to save the company, at least temporarily. I bet Elon will even waive the Blue(Gold?) Checkmark fee. ---

It always amazes me how time after time, _somebody_ steps up to be DFG’s partner / facilitator / enabler in the belief that they personally will gain from this. And time after time, everybody DFG touches gets turned to shite, into a victim of his remarkable ability to come out a gainer while everyone around him has come out a loser. The score now stands at 1,000 for DFG, zero for his enablers. And somehow somebody always steps up to be number 1001, thinking to themselves “This time it’ll be different. I’m smarter / better / badder / crookeder than all those other folks who got screwed.” Fools. All fools.
