They made a series of reckless and wasteful decisions at a critical time that caused significant damage to TMTG and a decline in the stock price of its merger partner.”
“Only after 2022, when a new CEO and a duly constituted Board of Directors was put in place to manage the Company with due care and in good faith, was the Company able to remedy Moss’s and Litinsky’s mismanagement and place Truth Social on a solid footing,” the lawsuit continued. It also claimed that the pair retaliated after their plan for a merger was found to be inadequate, going on to try and “thwart” the merger deal. Trump’s lawyers argued that they should be held liable for damages and cede their 8.6% stake in the company, currently valued at roughly $606 million.The stock’s price slumped by roughly 20%, cutting its total value by nearly $2 billion, finishing the day at $6.5 billion.
