DJT is worth as much as free speech is. Trump will be in Rikers, leading a prisoners for Trump rally. A.I. chips going into all computers is their plan, every keystroke and image stored for three months which activates windows co-pilot. This takes spying to a whole new level. How much is your privacy worth?
"Free Speech" is no longer the free expression of ideas and allowing the best ideas to rise. History will view the cult of DJT as re-defining "Free Speech" with the promoted strategy of "flood the zone with bullshit" so that he is the only & final arbiter of 'truth'. IOW, freedom to lie and defraud without accountability nor consequence.

Just to add to all the noise here. 1. If I had an option, I’d have shorted DJT when it was trading in the 60s. Even with the borrow rates approaching crazy levels, it would have printed big-time. It’s still a short IMHO. 2. As a Republican, I am glad this happened. The dude got convicted for fraud, maybe the sane side of the party can now see him for what he is. Let’s replace him with someone sensible and someone younger.
Trump is still favored in the betting markets. Polymarket has him at 53-54 and Insight Prediction has him at 52.5-53.8. They are only down maybe a point or two since conviction. I tend to think the markets are about right. Biden is too old, and T was harmed by Covid in the last election. Conviction probably costs T one percent. The economy is pretty good but people don't like the accrued inflation.
I don't see how there can be any doubt Trump has committed numerous crimes. It appears he will most likely win the election. And DJT will ultimately approach its true value of zero. All of these can be true.
