    The money is not gone. It is just in someone elses pocket.

    They’re not investors. They’re combination of idiots and people who discussed things with him/his family prior and used buying the rugpull coin as a way to transfer a large bribe for a pardon or a child or something.

        Why not both.

        There were almost a million investors. I am sure there were dozens or hundreds that used Trump coin for a bribe…but that still leave about a million investors.

            Classic con artist tricks, target rubes and rely on their greed.

    They literally bought crypto from a con man, hard to feel sorry for them.

    It’s funny how he’s pulling the rug from under the very people that support him. Not a very sustainable strategy, but then he doesn’t do anything sustainable does he

      He inhabits a 80-year-old, badly abused and decomposing body and he doesn’t care about anybody else including his own family. “Sustainable” is probably not what he’s going for at this point (if it ever was).

      And they’ll still happily give him money because they’re fucktard mouth breathing cultist dipshits who are a waste of carbon and oxygen.

        Thry will give him every last penny and ask him to please take their family too (as property), while he is at it.
