Former President Donald Trump's new media enterprise - Trump Media & Technology Group - is already worth an implied $8.2 billion following last week's buying frenzy following the announcement of it's special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), Digital World Acquisition Corp. (ticker: DWAC).

But I have been around long enough to know that web projects may look and sound stupid when first proposed, but end up worth billions a few years later. 

And I also learned a long time ago to never underestimate Donald Trump.

He also is the first or one of the very few presidents who lost money in office.
