Michael Hiltzik: A lengthy list of Trump's disastrous business deals — compiled by his newest business partners

Donald Trump's business history has been so filled with disastrous ventures that it's been hard to keep track of them all.

No longer. Digital World Acquisition Corp., which is the special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, taking Trump's "Truth Social" media platform public, has conveniently listed them in a document it is required to file publicly before selling stock. DWAC is aiming to raise at least $875 million.

Some followers of Trumpworld may find that the S-4 registration statement filed Monday in anticipation of the Trump-SPAC merger makes hilarious reading. It's certainly thorough, though there's always the chance that a business failure here or there escaped its drafters' notice.
