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.
Fuck Trump but that is some Pelosi level shit he’s pulling. We need a new system. This reminds me of back in the 90’s we had a “Best Buy” store and a “Future Shop” store in the same box mall. They were owned by the same company.
Best buy bought future shop in 2001
This is from my memory. I was close.
