@ecksmc doesn’t it take a bit of work to get listed?! I thought the exchange does research on the financials to deem it worthy to be listed?! I thought you just can’t say ‘We are public!’ on Monday and bam you’re listed on Tuesday.

Investors approved plans to take Trump’s social media platform public on Friday, netting the former president a paper fortune of $3bn only

Trump’s supporters banded together to boost shares in Digital World. The stock has rallied by some 145% since the turn of the year, boosting the firm’s value to about $6bn.

The company will now trade on the stock market as Trump Media & Technology Group under the stock ticker “DJT” – Trump’s initials.

@ecksmc lol… they are going to lose a lot of money. I guess it’s their alternative to GoFundMe… since gofundme said you can’t do that fund. tRump and early investors are going to clean up. Idiots
