Trump Stock Plummeting Over Death Threat Against Liz Cheney, Puerto Rico “Garbage Island”: Investors Fleeing

Donald Trump’s stock is plummeting.

Trump Media is down to $30.30 after he suggested killing former congresswoman Liz Cheney.

The stock has dropped 15% just today by 1:20pm. On Tuesday, it was at 53.88.

Trump has suffered a personal loss of at least $2 billion as the stock for his social media site Truth Social is collapsing.

Are people finally understanding who he is? In just 5 days, the stock has fallen 28%.

This comes after a big run up as investors were sure Trump would win the election. But a sell off is taking place now starting since Sunday’s rally when Puerto Rico was described on stage as a “floating island of garbage.”

Trump could have apologized for the statement by a comedian, but didn’t, and he himself kept describing the US as a “garbage can.”

Showbiz411 is now in its 13th year of providing breaking and exclusive entertainment news. This is an independent site, unlike the many Hollywood trades that are owned by one company. To continue providing news that takes a fresh look at what's going on in movies, music, theater, etc, advertising is our basis. Reader donations would be greatly appreciated, too. They are just another facet of keeping fact based journalism alive.
