Trump claims Truth Social co-founders don't deserve equity.

Former President Donald Trump sued Truth Social's co-founders, arguing they mismanaged the social media platform early on and should lose their equity in the freshly public firm.

Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. filed papers last week in Florida state court arguing that executives Wes Moss and Andy Litinsky made costly mistakes that delayed the company's coming public and sought a judge to strip them of their shares.

After Trump was banned from Twitter after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol incident, the duo, contestants on "The Apprentice," sold him on Truth Social.
