For once, a Trump fall guy is going to make some money off him: a fund owned by Trump Media and Truth Social co-founder Andy Litinsky sold 7.5 million shares of DJT, netting more than $100 million in the process, CNN reports.
A contestant and loser on the fake reality show The Apprentice, Litinsky was prevented from selling the shares previously under the company’s lock-up provisions for insiders. Litinsky’s shares become the first major block of the stock sold; DJT finished about one percent lower on Thursday.
Litinsky continues to be involved in litigation with Trump and Trump Media, which tried to revoke the shares issued to Litinsky and Wes Moss, another former The Apprentice contestant who help found Trump Media. Trump claimed they were irresponsible and wasteful in establishing the company, whose sole product is a downgraded Twitter ripoff that continues to lose money.
