aside from the perpetual risk of a bailout from a non-economic MAGA patron, here is a weak thesis based on the unhinged pop in DJT shares this week :

- over the weekend, trump donor yass, who has put actual capital into the SPAC, seems to have constructed a small short position hedge.

- majority shareholder don, and other insiders mostly have free shares as longs. they can more likely lock-in liquid profits, and much sooner, if they can also establish significant shorts.
(the threat to tank the price due to comprehension by MAGA nation seems negligible)

given the cost to short, the tiny volumes, and other possible restrictions, i dont know if there is a legal options mechanism to do this. but it would be their most brilliant play in the inevitable short history of DJT.
