Donald Trump's net worth plunged by more than a billion dollars after the stock price of his struggling social media company fell by more than twenty percent amid huge losses in a legal battle between Trump and his co founders, and now investors are betting millions that the company will collapse.

For more on this, it's time for A Closer Look.

Presidents from both parties love to brag about the success of the stock market.

In fact, Trump cares so much about the stock market's performance, he's tried to claim credit for its success after he left office.

But even his biggest boosters, like Fox host Maria Bartiromo, aren't buying it.

The Biden team can say, well, if things are so bad, how come the stock market's on a roll?

Because they think I'm going to be elected.

that you think the stock market's rallying because people think you're gonna be elected.

Even Maria Bartiromo doesn't believe it.

Look at her face.

She's so shocked, she turned into Rudy.

By the way, if you invested twenty dollars in us using the Rudy Ice graphic five years ago, you'd be a millionaire right now.

That's the face you make when a buddy tells you the Mets are gonna win it all this year.

You think the Mets are going to win the World Series?

I do, yeah.

They started O and five on purpose to lull the rest of the league into a false sense of security.

And then when everyone's guard is down, they pounce and they just lost again.

It's all part of the plan.

All presidents do this.

Trump just takes it to absurd extremes, as he always does.

But the stock market is not the real economy.

For one thing, the wealthiest ten percent of Americans own ninety three percent of the stocks.

Although, you don't need a study to tell you that.

Just go to any Manhattan dinner party.

I can't tell you the number of times I've sat next to someone talking to me about margin calls and options trading, and I don't know what the fuck any of those terms mean.

Which is why whenever I get invited to a dinner party now, I always RSVP with a note that says, please sit me next to your dumbest guest.

Oh, and there's my name tag.

Oh, hello, Mr. Mayor.

Are you going to eat your roll?

If not, I'm going to take it home in my pocket.

The stock market does not fully reflect the underlying health of the economy, and there's no better current example of that than Trump Media and Technology Group, the parent company of Trump's tiny and struggling Twitter ripoff, Truth Social.

When the company went public last week, it soared to shocking highs, despite the fact that it has lost money and users, which, in turn, massively inflated Trump's net worth on paper.

More breaking news tonight involving Donald Trump.

His media company, which of course includes Truth Social, soaring in its first day of trading on NASDAQ, surging at one point during trading to seventy eight dollars a share before closing at fifty eight.

Trump now owns sixty percent of the new Trump Media Company, or roughly seventy eight million dollars a share, a stake that is on paper at this hour worth four point six billion dollars.

The higher the stock goes, the higher that Donald Trump's net worth is.

At yesterday's close, Trump's net worth, according to Bloomberg, a little over seven billion dollars.

It went up by four billion dollars on Monday alone.

That's right.

Trump's net worth went up by four billion dollars in one day.

Here's actual footage of me waking up to that news.

He can't keep getting away with this!

Now, to be clear, that's only on paper.

Those are unrealized gains Donald Trump can't spend or borrow against any of that money yet.

Although, you know Donald Trump doesn't see it that way.

When Trump heard that his net worth increased by four billion dollars, he immediately ran out, bought a Ferrari, a Scrooge McDuck money pool, and a beautiful new head of hair.

The only.

The only way Trump would admit the money wasn't real is if Rudy asked Trump to pay his outstanding legal bills.

I made four bills this week, baby.

That's great, boss.

Now can you finally pay me?

Actually, Rudy, that's just on paper.

Those are... Those are unrealized gains that I legally cannot spend or borrow against until the six month lockup period has expired or until the board votes to allow me to cash out.

I'm heartbroken, Rudy.

I really am.

Oh, I'll be fine, boss.

Seth Meyers gave me his dinner roll.

Again, this is all paper money so far.

It's not real yet, just as easily as Trump's net worth went up, income crashing back down, which is partially what happened on Monday when the stock price fell.

Truth Social hit the Nasdaq last week with a bang, but now it's taking blows.

The stock, which is listed as DJT, lost roughly four billion dollars in value in its first week of trading.

The company's stock fell more than twenty percent, and Donald Trump's net worth fell more than a billion dollars.

That's right.

His net worth fell by one billion dollars in one day.

He basically lost the entirety of Taylor Swift's net worth.

And, by the way, she got that money.

That's not...

Theoretical.

She can buy private jets with her debit card.

And she made that money from writing and performing, not from slapping her name on a money losing Twitter ripoff.

Although, she could definitely do that.

I'd be first in line to sign up for a new social media app called Taytalk.

I'd do that.

I would do that.

So why?

Why did the stock suddenly start to tank?

Well, reality probably caught up with it.

The company's value was completely divorced from its underlying business.

So here's the latest numbers that are concerning investors.

TruthSocial owner, Trump Media, lost USD of the last year and it generated very, very little revenue, just USD of the last year.

And some of this is not shocking because we know that TruthSocial is struggling.

I mean, it is shrinking.

Monthly active US users on iOS and Android down USD of the last year.

I think all of this just underscores why there's a lot of warnings out there about this stock, right?

One professor told me it's a bubble.

Another basically called it a meme stock.

There's no way Trump knows what a meme stock is.

He probably doesn't even know the word meme.

I own it and it has my name in it.

It's a me me stock.

So, the company lost fifty eight million dollars and more than half of its users, and yet, when it went public, it was first valued at over seven billion dollars.

I'm sure you're asking, how is that possible?

Well, there's an actually perfectly reasonable explanation, but it involves a lot of complex financial jargon and some very technical, obscure macroeconomic principles that will take me a long time to explain.

So, just do your best to follow along.

Ready?

The stock market is bull

By calling it a meme stock, experts are basically comparing the Trump stock to GameStop, a stock whose price gets inflated beyond its underlying value by online investors.

But in the case of GameStop, there was at least an actual business.

Here's how one commentator on the infamous WallStreetBets subreddit explained the situation.

Now, in fairness, that's not just some dude's opinion.

He's quoting the company slogan.

Agree or disagree, you got to love the harsh wisdom of Reddit investors.

Reporters and financial experts in the mainstream media are all carefully parsing their words and saying stuff like... If the dudes on Reddit ran CNN, the headline would say...

And here's the real tell that everyone knows Trump's stock is actually worthless.

Investors are betting against it.

The New York Times reported this week that traders are betting millions that Trump media will tumble.

In fact, the parent company of Truth Social is a popular target for short sellers.

Short sellers bet that the price of a stock will fall.

They do that by borrowing shares of a company and selling them into the market, hoping to buy them back later at a lower price before returning the shares to the lender and pocketing the difference as profit.

Again, there's no way Trump understands any of that.

I guarantee

When Trump's aides told him investors were shorting his stock, he thought they meant that short people were buying his stock.

Look, I don't like the man, but I'll gladly take an investment from Ron DeSantis.

He can keep his earnings in his little white boots.

We love the little white boots.

And yet, as if Trump's stock needed any more reasons to go down in flames on top of everything else, it is now the subject of a contentious legal battle in which Trump is basically trying to kick out the co founders of the company so he can keep the stock all to himself.

The foreign president is suing the co founders of Truth Social in an effort to prevent them from keeping shares in the company's stock.

The former president's attorneys claim that Andy Letinsky and Wes Moss made a series of costly mistakes that delayed the company from going public.

Trump's legal team asked the judge to strip both men of their shares in the company.

This, after Letinsky and Moss filed a lawsuit in February, claiming that Trump and other leaders schemed to dilute their shares prior to a merger, which would allow the company to then go public.

Oh, my God, how many court battles could one person have?

This guy is in court more than this lady.

Here's what happened.

These guys essentially brought the deal to Trump.

They took the company public, and in the process, they basically dumped a few billion in paper money into his lap, and Trump is now thanking them by suing to take their stock away.

Dude, just take the W. Your company is worthless.

This is like Alaska Airlines suing the passenger who sat next to the open door.

You should be thanking us for the extra legroom.

The stock market is a casino.

It's not the real economy.

Trump's dumb social media company is just the latest example of that, and now investors are betting millions that the stock will collapse.

It's kind of like that scene from the social network, except in this case, the only thing cooler than Trump losing a million dollars is Trump losing... This has been... The news, right?

That can make you crazy.

But what if there was something you could watch that only made me crazy?

Well, there is.

It's called Corrections, and it's every week where I respond to YouTube commentators and what they've said I got wrong about each week's show.

Check it out wherever you get your YouTube videos.

So, YouTube, where you are right now.

I can be here all day.
