30 days is long enough for plenty of suckers, er, I mean, investors to pony up a small mountain of cash. At this point, anyone who sinks good money into any enterprise even remotely connected to former president whatsisname, deserves to be left holding an empty bag.

Just watch for for Trump to surreptitiously bale out of any stocks that he holds during the period to take the money and run. He will then put on the same sort of media campaign as with Twitter etc; The Washington Swamp is trying to shut me up, they are afraid of me! He's laughing all the way to the bank....if any bank will now touch him. Much work for the SEC fraud investigators I think but not enough time to do it before election cutoffs.
In international comparisons of "corruption" the US doesn't fare particularly well coming 25th in a scale of "clean" countries....Scandinavia, Singapore and Switzerland taking the prizes.
I remember last summer, when the Democrats tried to include a measure to empower the IRS to collect outstanding taxes (mainly from businesses) as a way to help fund the Build Back Better bills. It was one of the first things on the cutting room floor. Seems NO ONE in power wants the IRS to have any teeth.
And most of the 130% of stock traded on the day pledged only at the margin and often resold before even having to put up the 10% funding! No cost and all profit

Thanks for clarifying. Where IS the SEC in all of this? Will anyone EVER be held accountable for ANYTHING? 🙄

and hence the resistance of the Republicans to funding a real IRS service that could police the system and catch the criminals!

He said "laws"...perhaps he meant lawyers.

It’s the foreign “investors” that concern me. Seems like a semi-legal way to get foreign campaign contributions.

And maybe launder a few rubles at the same time?
That will go into his pocket.
