Donald Trump bought at least $1m worth of bonds in Netflix and Warner Bros Discovery (WBD), according to a financial disclosure form, days after he said would “be involved” in a proposed merger between the two companies.
The White House released a financial disclosure report on Friday which showed that Trump made two purchases from Netflix and two purchases from WBD, each amounting to at least $502,000.
Trump bought the bonds on 12 December and 16 December, a little more than a week after Netflix agreed to buy WDB in an $82.7bn deal.
The purchase is subject to regulatory clearance and is sure to raise eyebrows given Trump has said he will be engaged in that process.
“They have a very big market share,” Trump told reporters at the Kennedy Center on 7 December, two days after the deal was announced and five days before he began to purchase Netflix and WBD bonds.
Does this dumb motherfucker think he’s going to live forever??? Why are trying to make more??? You can’t take it with you and you sure af don’t care about your family. It’s a sickness. A greed disease.
I am convinced that we must name the problem directly: the pathological hoarding of wealth is a sickness in our society.
For too long we have allowed this behavior to shape our world, often to the detriment of the common good. The faster we collectively reject this extreme greed (treating it with the moral seriousness it deserves) the sooner we can build an economy that serves humanity, not just a few.
Right? He is clearly losing his health. Falling asleep at meetings, he seems to have lost the part of his brain that tempers acheiving desires.
Like want peace prize. Normal brain says getting one gifted joke. Make brain look bad.
He wants to leave with the most, that is winning I presume. He cares not that everyone is cynically pretending he is great, because he lost that part of his brain that would interpret that.
