    The Trump Card...

    This is significant and, to me, a surprise. Not long ago, I declared Truth Social to be a corpse in need of a decent burial. Clearly, it's not dead yet. "Donald Trump's social media app, Truth Social, has spiked in popularity and beaten Twitter to reach the top spot on Apple's app chart this...

    Ideologically similar and all about power and influence. When DeSantis makes his move, look to Rumble to align with him.

    What are they doing on the site? What is the social significance, if any? What are the market impacts?

    The Trump Card...

    Also worth noting is Truth Social's move to the Rumble cloud makes TS Rumble's customer; totally dependent on Rumble for Truth Social to run. Rumble has the power to cancel or limit Truth Social at will.

    Death by DeSantis

    I do not know how it will affect the state as a whole. At present, the clear impacts are slated to fall hard on Orange County and Osceola County, where Disney World is located. This may also have an effect on Florida's municipal and state bond prices but that remains to be seen. If this bill...

    The Trump Card...

    Truth Social's move to the Rumble platform is a noteworthy development. Whether that will result in real growth for Truth Social remains to be seen.

    The Trump Card...

    How do you know Truth Social is now "exploding in growth?" What are the indicators? There have been reliably reported developments that relate to Truth Social. Elon Musk is buying Twitter and has plans to take it private. Donald Trump said he will not return to Twitter even if allowed, and "...

    Death by DeSantis

    Clearly, Disney thinks it is wise. It seems Disney employees are behind this push. It seems Disney is responding to the expressed sentiment of its employees, and deems that important enough to express itself as it did. There is no evidence of that. Park attendance remains strong. If there is...

    Death by DeSantis

    Things are coming into clearer focus now that DeSantis has signed into law the bill that dissolves the Reedy Creek Special District. According to Orange County Tax Collector Scott Randolph, Disney will be immediately relieved of a $163 million per year tax obligation and the citizens of Orange...

    It's already true. Keep denying it won't make it false.

    The Trump Card...

    Facebook and Twitter had technical geniuses leading those companies. Truth Social is led by a political hack who cannot attract or retain technical talent. Facebook and Twitter never had a 93% collapse in user traffic like Truth Social did. I don't know the two company's exact stock history but...

    Death by DeSantis

    I'm not sure they think they are going to win. The retirements you mention are an indicator of that. I have not seen any prominent Democrat or any left-leaning news organization even suggest they think the Democrats will keep control of the U.S. House after the 2022 elections. There may be some...

    Death by DeSantis

    No one knows how things will change. That's why this rushed-through and non-detailed bill is being criticized. You don't dump $1 billion in debt on two counties and some local municipalities and expect that to be done without consequence. The government entities do not have the fire departments...

    Here's the backstory on the Reedy Creek Special District now in the news. “The result is an example of how a working partnership between business and government can be prosperous for both sides.” https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/21/us/reedy-creek-walt-disney-florida/index.html

    Death by DeSantis

    In our city, I can get special privileges with tax reductions and building permit waivers if I locate a business in a certain development zone. The privileges were established by the city council to incentivize businesses to locate there. This trade-off was deemed good for the community because...

    Death by DeSantis

    Yes, that's right. It's the deal that has been in place since swampland was where Disney stands now. And it's worked just fine for 50 years. Now there's trouble because of Desantis's deeds...

    And some ventures become hopelessly lost. Truth Social is a corpse in need of a decent burial.

    Death by DeSantis

    Disney overstepped no bounds. As a business, it has the same rights and freedom of expression as any other entity in America. And DeSantis, Republicans and no one else has the right to say otherwise ... no more than I have the right to say you have overstepped your bounds if you say something I...
