Marjorie Taylor Greene reportedly lost a lot of cash in Trump-linked deal

A new report from Business Insider says Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene lost thousands of dollars on an investment she made in a company that is expected to eventually merge with Truth Social, the alternative social media platform launched by former President Donald Trump.


The report says Greene invested an amount between $15,001 and $50,000 in Digital World Acquisition Corp. in October of last year. The value of the company's stock has plummeted by more than 82% since then, according to Business Insider, and the report estimates Greene lost between $12,330 and $41,100 on that one investment.

record of multiple business failures and bankruptcies, deserve what they get.

I suspect her investment was more than just a financial one. I would say to her it was yet another ploy to curry favor with trump.

Like most of the other refugs who are railing on and on about student loan bailouts?
