34. How much of this is true?

Sun May 25, 2025, 07:08 PM

Sunday

I've read the the Atlantic, Economic Times, and Syracuse.com articles from a month ago, and believe them, but they don't mention anything about his politics or impending bankruptcy. I haven't seen anything credible more recently than that.

The same fake picture seems to be attached to the same tweet & retweets that say he's now bankrupt or will be bankrupt in 1 or 2 months, but I've yet to see anything credible that mentions bankruptcy.
