But since then TMTG has diversified it into a variety of totally unrelated &#8211; and equally unsuccessful &#8211; businesses such as streaming video, cryptocurrency, MAGA-centric mutual funds, and even nuclear fusion. And because they were all affiliated with Trump, they have all performed with the hallmark ineptitude that is emblematic of the Trump name.<\/p>\n<p>Now Trump has announced that his primary TMTG operation, Truth Social, has suffered a staggering setback. He had previously announced that it was going to be spun off into a separate, standalone company. But now <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/markets\/stocks\/articles\/trump-media-scraps-plan-spin-141228865.html\" target=\"_blank\">those plans have been scuttled<\/a><\/strong>&#8230;.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Trump Media and Technology and TAE Technologies announced on Wednesday they have abandoned plans to spin off Truth Social and certain other media assets into a separate publicly listed company. The companies did not disclose reasons for canceling the proposed spinoff of the conservative-focused social media platform.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There really wasn&#8217;t any need to disclose the reasons for this annulment. It&#8217;s obvious that Truth Social is too weak to survive on its own. It has never made a profit. It has abysmal user statistics. It has been mired in criminality and other scandals. TMTG stock, with Truth Social as its core component, has suffered an 90% decline from its high mark. Who would want to invest in that?<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, there is new evidence every day that Trump enterprises are nothing more than con games intended to enrich him and his mob family. Most recently, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/investigations\/parsing-trumps-crypto-profits-investors-losses-2026-06-09\/\" target=\"_blank\">Reuters reported<\/a><\/strong> that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;[The] Trump family has made $2.3 billion from crypto with little-to-no downside risk, while other investors have lost $2.3 billion, including paper losses, as of the end of April.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That&#8217;s not exactly a track record that will encourage investor participation. Instead, it illustrates how Trump exploits his cult disciples for his own financial benefit, and provides pathways for conflicted parties (corporations and foreign operatives) to funnel cash (aka bribes) to him. And that&#8217;s pretty much been his modus operandi from the start. For instance&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=69682\" target=\"_blank\">YOU&#8217;RE FIRED: Trump Media&#8217;s CEO, Devin Nunes, Gets Booted From the Failing Truth Social Company<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nDevin Nunes, who had no relevant business experience whatsoever, proceeded to run the sham operation into the ground. He packaged it with a variety of unrelated undertakings, such as cryptocurrency, mutual funds, gambling, and even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=68245\" target=\"_blank\">an attempt at AI that seemed to go rogue<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=69367\" target=\"_blank\">Trump\u2019s Cratering Truth Social Stock Reflects the Catastrophe of Everything That Trump Does<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nTrump Media and Technology Group Corp. plans to issue a new cryptocurrency, which will be distributed among its shareholders.
