* Will Wilkerson, co-founder of Trump's media company, filed an SEC whistleblower complaint in August.
*Wilkerson detailed several allegations about the company to The Washington Post.
* An email obtained by the Post showed another co-founder believed Trump was retaliating against him.
A co-founder of Trump Media & Technology Group, the company behind Truth Social, said former President Donald Trump pushed another executive to give some of his shares to Melania Trump and retaliated when the request was declined, according to a Washington Post report.
Will Wilkerson, who filed a whistleblower complaint about the company to the SEC in August, made the allegation in a story published by the outlet on Saturday. The Post, which obtained materials submitted with Wilkerson's complaint, detailed accusations of infighting and potentially illegal activity at the company.
Trump had been given a 90% stake in the company when it was founded, according to the SEC complaint. But Wilkerson told the Post he was with fellow co-founder Andy Litinsky in October 2021 when the latter received a call from Trump. At the time, the company had recently reached a merger deal that would catapult the value of its stock. Wilkerson said the former president asked Litinsky to give some of his shares to Melania Trump.
Wilkerson told the Post that Litinsky demurred and explained the gift would result in a tax bill he would be unable to pay: "Trump didn't care. He said, 'Do whatever you need to do.'"

Yawn - more breathless propaganda to prop up New York City AG’s baseless investigation.
It’s amazing how much the pettiness comes out when the subject turns to Trump, while all of the democrats sleaze is ignored.
Andy Litinsky is a young man who produced Comedy Central’s “Roast of Donald Trump” back in 2011, and is one of the holdovers from The Apprentice 2 TV series. We have seen in the past how Trump sometimes makes poor staffing decisions, this may have been one of them. Litinsky is a New York Jew. How many of them do you think are politically conservative? Not many. And if you do find one, they’ll tell you they’re “financially conservative, but socially liberal”. So not surprising he bites the hand....
Its well after 2020 and Trump is still having practically every guy he picks turn on him yet he will magically be better than DeSantis and every other conservative on the planet and is guaranteed to assemble a dream team competent enough navigate all the campaigning and legal challenges to catapult to victory over a 10000% Dem cheating margin in 2024.
It is sad spectacle that you post communist propaganda without one word against it. Sad. Go to DU where you belong.

Who's the fool in this picture?
Oh geez. These people are neurotic.
“How many of them do you think are politically conservative?”
Trump’s son in law fits into this category... Don’t trust him..
Sounds like leftist bullshit to me. Trump and Melania have all the money they need.
I agree. I’ll vote for Trump if he’s the nominee. But I prefer DeSantis.
Well, you are for sure smarter than me and apparently smarter than than Trump. In fact, I think you should run for president so you can pick a brilliant staff from your acquaintances. Or you can just sit in the cheap seats and criticize as you are doing now.
You are. Since you ask. I voted for Trump. Two times. And worked on his campaign. Not that it's any of your damned business. So dial it down old man, or get lost.

Uh-Huh.
A snake in the grass. “Trump didn’t care” sounds like another reason for Nancy Pelosi to “punch” Trump out.

Why?
Trump is the original. DeSantis is a questionable copy propped up originally by Trump. DeSantis is collecting the help anti-Trumpers. He voted for TTP. He needs some more time to prove himself.
“off with his head!!”... Lol...
He’s actually more than that man... Lighten up Francis!!
