Since July 21 , Donald Trump's Truth Social platform has lost nearly 39% of its value.

The company's annual report cited a "risk factor" in holding the company's stock as a risk factor.

Trump has shown that he doesn't take his responsibility to support Truth Social very seriously, says David Gergen .

Gergen : Trump 's prospects for victory in November election have faded.

Michael Hiltzik: Truth Social has been a joke from the inception.

He says the company doesn't resemble any enterprise that could have been imagined by the value-investing pioneers Benjamin Graham and David Dodd .

In its most recent quarterly disclosure, issued Aug. 12 , it reported a loss of $344 million on revenue of $1.4 million for the first six months of this year .

Trump might end up laughing all the way to the bank, but his investors would be left with nothing but tears.
