The ongoing legal dispute between Donald Trump and two co-founders of Truth Social, Andy Latinsky and Wes Moss, in Delaware Chancery Court could result in significant consequences for Trump and his legal team if found in contempt and sanctioned.

The court had previously issued an order to keep their stock secure during the lawsuit, but Trump's actions may have violated that order, leading to the potential for contempt and sanctions.
