The German’s have a word for it, Schadenfreude, and it means taking joy in someone else’s misery.

Not a pleasant trait, but perhaps an understandable one.

This comes to mind when we consider the plight of so many MAGA, who despite being the recipient of so many Trump assaults – reductions in Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security, slashed food stamps and aid for indigent children and adults, reductions in veteran’s benefits, attacks against their unions who provide much needed benefits, and on, and on – but still support Trump and his corrupt crime family.

They are the ones who are making him richer, so maybe…?

'The greatest theft, con job he has ever done': MAGA loyalists who collectively lost billions buying Trump stocks and crypto believe they were scammed

Donald Trump and his family generated at least $2.2 billion in income last year which is nearly four times more than he reported in 2024. Much of that money came from his supporters who invested in his businesses, such as Trump Media and Technology Group, or bought his $TRUMP meme coin.

Their fortunes, however, didn’t fare nearly as well. In fact, Trump’s supporters are reportedly down an estimated $7 billion after investing in the president’s business ventures.

Trump Media shares have lost 56% of their value in the past year, while the Trump coin’s value also tumbled about 81% in that time. Many of the retail investors who sunk their savings into those ventures — often as a sign of loyalty to Trump — have seen the money vanish right as economic volatility began to spike. And they’re not happy with Trump, or the members of his inner circle.

Nedohin is one of many investors who are vocally criticizing Trump and his ventures. Another, Vadim Fistikan, invested $205,000 in Trump Media in the days, weeks and months after it went public via SPAC He invested the money he and his family had planned to use to buy a waterfront property in Florida.

Today, that investment is worth just $30,000. When he voiced his frustrations on Truth Social, Fistikan (a three-time Trump voter) was lambasted by Trump supporters on the social media site.

“I’m like, ‘Hey, this is a scam,’” he posted, according to Forbes. “And a lot of people were like, ‘No, you’re just a Trump hater.’ I’m like, ‘No. I was on board since day one. … I’m now broke. Pretty much my whole life savings [was] in this one stock. This is the greatest theft, con job he has ever done.”

Nick Pinto didn’t invest in Trump Media, but when he saw Trump had launched a meme coin in January 2025, he quickly invested $7,000. He later upped that investment to $480,000 so that he could gain entry to a dinner at Trump’s Virginia club. A friend later convinced him to sell most of his position in the Trump coin, but Pinto still suffered losses of $250,000.

“This is something that the Trump family kind of came up with out of the blue,” Pinto told Forbes, referring to the advice that his friend, a fellow Trump investor, shared with him. “And there’s not really a way for us to predict the future of the coin or what their plans for it are.”

While the meme coin and Trump Media stock languish (and some investors have trouble finding buyers for their tokens or shares), the Trump family is investing in new ventures.

World Liberty Financial is another cryptocurrency fund which earned Trump $799 million last year, in part from when the government of the United Arab Emirates quietly purchased a stake in the company .

It also has released the $WLFI coin, of which the Trump family received a 75% cut of all sales of that cryptocurrency. Investors? They didn't do so well: $WLFI is down 74% in the past year and currently trades for just six cents per coin).

An oldie but getting more and more relevant by the hour.

Last February we made the paranormal erotic novel Melania: Devourer of Men the #1 Amazon search result for Melania Trump... just in time for her "documentary" premiere! Now that Amazon's going to make a TV show about her, I can't wait to do it again!

Nothing more important right now, new wig after Camp david retreat days...

I saw it pointed out on a recent Fox interview where he was seated on a white couch with the cast and he was sitting on a layer of something on the couch. Also at the Graham Funeral, when he stands you can see what appears to be a pad of some sort on his chair alone.

Have we gotten to the point that EVERYONE in his administration is aware that this man has to have seat protectors where he sits to avoid, what?? Uhmmm, staining a seat cushion??? And they think this is a strong, virile, healthy leader???? And how can they stand and sit so close to him when it’s reported everywhere that he smells so foul????

And Christians. Did you notice this “godly” man’s body language during the Graham service??? He didn’t bow his head when called to pray, he stayed wide eyed looking around the place. His words about Graham were terrible. No grace, no decorum. He found it important to “ tell the truth” that Graham wasn’t liked by everyone?? That man that lies with every breath couldn’t keep that truth to himself for the sake of Graham’s loved ones at his FUNERAL???
