I was going to jump in around $200 as it was headed down. Probably would have done 100 shares. Currently, that would have been about $15,000.
A lot of right wingers are going to lose their shirt over that classic pump and dump and I am about it.

It was a foolish move even for them, buying a crap stock on strictly ideological grounds.

It's like if your alma mater made it to the NCAA tournament but as a 16th seed, but you bet on them to win it all simply because they're your alma mater.

They are now cursing their decision, as they are currently frozen from selling at the moment.

Once I saw it hit $200 I wanted to short it but shorting is not yet permitted. Once it is, that stock is going to tank to single digits.
