Apparently, everyone who goes into business with Donald Trump thinks they’re the one who won’t end up getting screwed. Donald Trump’s newly-public Trump Media & Technology Group is suing Truth Social co-founders Wes Moss and Andy Litinsky claiming the two former Apprentice contestants mismanaged the enterprise in its early days and therefore should have their shares revoked, NBC News reports.
With a history of putting incompetent people in charge of major projects–Trump put re-imaging the Veterans Administration, modernizing the entire federal government and negotiating peace in the Middle East into Jared Kushner’s portfolio–it shouldn’t be a surprise that two game show contestants couldn’t handle a major start-up operation for the game show host.
“This was a phenomenal opportunity for Moss and Litinsky,” the suit says, adding the pair were “riding President Trump’s coattails. … Without President Trump, Truth Social would have been impossible.” While Truth Social currently exists, it’s far from a profitable enterprise: it lost more than $50 million in 2023.
