Truth Social II, Trump’s Worth Up $56 Billion This Weekend From Meme Coins

If you have a sense of deja vu, you come by it honestly. Donald Trump has another money manipulation in the works, this time with a version of BitCoin, his TrumpCoin meme which commemorates his second Inauguration. It’s totally sleight of hand, just like Truth Social was.
You may recall when Truth Social blasted off and Trump made $6 Billion overnight — on paper. And we have certainly seen Truth Social slip, slide and tobaggan downhill. Truth Social is still up and running but it is not making big profit. It will be interesting when tax time comes and we find out how many millions the platform lost this year. But it gives Devon something to do, so there’s that.
“All without producing something of economic value.” This is the story of Trump’s life, playing with money. The man is a living monopoly game. To him it’s all play money but real people end up losing real cash from his schemes, alas.


This is where we are this 19th day of January, 2025. Enjoy the last few hours and vestiges of sanity because tomorrow it all hits the fan. Cantaloupe Caligula is back and it’s going to be tacky as hell and costly on all levels: financially, spiritually, culturally, physically (your mileage may vary but if RFK, Jr. gets confirmed, this could be a bad category.) Emotionally, I don’t even want to think about.
We need to soldier through this. I know people are devastated but it’s only playing into Trump’s hands to be ostrich like and withdrawn. We have to get back in the game.
Friends, I am forced to self-promote and ask you for money. We had a bad year compared with 2023 and the end of the year has been catastrophic. Traffic died on November 5.

Our only goal is to stay in business and give you the best content we can generate. You are the wind beneath our wings. Thank you. Ursula
