That when you have a chance to join a firm being investigated by multiple regulatory bodies, you have to do it?

If Daddy Trump says jump, you jump.  I wonder if Perdue had a choice about running for Governor of Georgia.  Trump pretended to be surprised, but he wasn't.

To be honest I had forgotten about this guy.

Didn't California make his district much more competitive?

Hahah, this whole thing enterprise is a grift. Nunes is getting rewarded and invited to cash in. By the time the investigation finishes, all the rubes will have been fleeced, hefty salaries paid out to CEO Nunes, Trump, and assorted straphangers, and the whole concern shut down or in bankruptcy.

A better gig than Congress if you can get it.

You want to talk about timelines?

As we've talked about before, plenty of companies/people could have come up with a simple social media platform that was easy for Trump to post on, and they would all use a 3rd-party email/mailing list service (which they do for their fundraising emails already) and had it up and running within a month or two, with a fully-populated merchandise shop (all of it print-on-demand so that they don't even have to store physical stock).  There are plenty of platforms to choose from, whether it was a simple platform that just had Trump's daily rants (which the Trump Media Empire already tried), all the way up to something similar to twitter, with two-way engagement with his fanbase.

Plenty of us here on Surly have the resources to spin up a website in a few minutes with an off-the-shelf platform that would get somebody like him about 75% (or more) towards what he seems to want to do.  A simple CMS/website with a merchandise shop with a payment platform, and a form to pull in email addresses, tied to MailChimp, etc. It's barely a few hours work.

Here we are, coming up on 10 or 11 months since he's been banned from twitter and FB (and everybody knew he'd be banned from twitter the moment he was out of the WH), and his people can't pull it off, and he's still stuck with his old website.

I would love to know what is going on there, because while on the surface, it's easy to say that he's just surrounded by dumbasses or he's too cheap to do this right, there are plenty of options for him that would cost him very little (for the amount of money that will be generated) and that could be spun up in a few hours by just one IT person. Hell, there's plenty of MAGA types that can do this and would be happy to do this, and may even do some of it for free just for the advertising.

These folks love their grifting, which really makes me wonder why they keep botching their social media/website project.

Hell, they are already a part of the way there:

But then you hit up their merchandise section, and it's run by WinRed and not the Trump campaign.

It's not hard to run a merchandise section on a website, but they apparently can't do it.

Betcha they couldn't make PCI compliance and don't want to hold the books on those transactions. Has to be a choice to make it harder to look into and see what's happening, as is so often the case with trump

It’s hilarious. Matt Levine did a good write-up on the PIPE the SPAC just raised.

It’s a grift funded by MAGA idiots

Yeah it’s pretty sketchy. They didn’t file the signatures of the counter parties, which they are required to do, so we don’t actually know who invested.

How is Nunes still in charge of that train wreck, Truth media?

It's easy to keep a job when every qualified person refuses. People would rather teach in public schools than try and run Trump's social media's platform.

So, let's check in on our boy Devin:
