🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: CNN just dropped an investigation on how Trump promoted over 20 companies on Truth Social. Days after buying their stock.


The clearest case is Nvidia. Last April, Trump posted that Nvidia's new AI plans would get fast permits. He didn't mention something else. Days earlier, he'd bought up to $500,000 in Nvidia stock.
It's not just one case. On January 6, Trump bought US Steel stock. Same day, he posted that his tariffs would make the company more valuable. He made over 50 Tesla purchases last year. At least $4 million total. Several came days before he praised Tesla publicly at the White House. On July 23, he made one of his biggest Tesla buys yet. The next day, he ended his public feud with Musk on Truth Social.
The scale is what stands out. Trump posted over 6,000 times last year. His accounts made over 20,000 trades in that same window. Most trades weren't followed by a related post. There's no direct proof he's posting just to move his own stocks. But dozens of cases still line up this way.
Here's the legal reality. None of this breaks the law. Presidents are exempt from the conflict-of-interest rule that binds other officials. A Columbia law professor put it simply. One post can move a stock. The next post can move it back.
NVDA-2.72%
TSLA-1.39%
