RE:Trump can soon tap his $2 billion Truth Social fortune You missed the sleazy part...
While Trump may be unable to sell many shares at this point, there is another way he could tap his Truth Social fortune. Once the lock-up period expires, Trump will no longer be prohibited from borrowing against his stake in Trump Media.
That means Trump could pledge some or all of those shares as collateral in a loan.
Of course, as Ohlrogge noted, “a lot of banks are reluctant to do business with Trump due to their past interactions with him.”
But even if banks won’t lend to Trump, rich supporters could.
“It could be a wealthy individual who either thinks it’s good business or they see it as an opportunity to get on the good side of someone who might be the next president,” Ohlrogge said.
Experts say that if Trump does borrow against his Truth Social stake, he may not be required to disclose it.
