an intrepid user was able to join TS on his third try (not wanting to give any real data) and turned off the ad blocker.
before TS can be used to launder semi-billions via ad revenue, let's get a starting reference sample of served ads :

home equity loans
Trump 2024 stuffed bear
Catholics for Catholicism
Service First Flagpoles
A Wealth Protection Summit
Trump Collectible Golden Bills
Dream Singles--conservative Girls
Truth Social Varsity Hoodie and other apparel
My Pillow ads (3)
Trump caps

these appear to disruptive enterprises capable of generating many $tens of dollars. will they become funnels for 1000X revenue spend on marketing, and how will they report this on their own business taxes?
or since America will be great again, will we get ads for country club memberships? solid gold toilets?

trump election win or no win, TS will be worthless before 2025.
if he wins, trump's ambitions would predictably be much larger scams...and he has no need of the TS megaphone even now.

to clarify confusion on some other threads, and almost all mainstream media :

trump has no more made any money on his DJT shares than he has paid his fraud bond.

in the latter case he may have personal cash he doesnt want to spend.
in the former case, he has restricted equity he cannot monetize, but is desperately trying to weasel around.

update :
fraud bond was provided by California-based company Knight Insurance. The chair of that company is Don Hankey, who presides over an auto-services empire.

appears a hard-nosed used car salesman...finally a selfmade don ! [~$7B]
if no MAGA deal here, hankey requires 30% return in his 'normal' biz empire. (Forbes bio)
true cash source not expected to be provided\commented on.
