Trump Banned from His Own Social Network

PALM BEACH (The Borowitz Report)—In a major setback for the former President, Donald J. Trump has been banned from his own social network.

Trump’s permanent ban went into effect just moments into the beta test of the new social-media platform, Truth Social.

After Trump posted his first status update, the platform determined that he had violated its terms of service and expelled him forever.

Harland Dorrinson, a spokesman for Truth Social, confirmed that the platform had banned Trump, adding, “It’s unfortunate, but our hands are tied.”

Reportedly, Trump has prepared a blistering statement about his Truth Social ban but has been unable to find anywhere to post it.

Funny headline but in reality it will never come into existence. The SPAC, the end code, everything, its just another scam. Nunes was going to likely lose his seat anyway. So now he can come aboard and scam more money from MAGA dolts.

Twitter has not found a way to make money up to its potential and its the 'brand name' of these kinds of networks.
