Truth Social is another TFG failure
Link to tweet
Truth Social is the insurrection inciters new app, created by a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) whose launch already caused a federal investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Nonetheless, investors poured a billion dollars into the dubious shell company based in Miami and owned by a Wuhan, China-linked investor who is now a subsidiary of the Trump Media & Technology Group.
Two weeks ago, Trumps social app launched with great fanfare on the right and a gigantic waiting list that prevented most users from signing up or using the app, including reporters at Occupy Democrats who tried to sign up but couldnt.
Now, the Truth Social apps featured personality is livid that his signature app isnt swiftly dominating the competition in the two weeks since his Digital World Acquisition Corp. put its lightly used platform into the Apple store. The Daily Beast reports:
Worse for Trump, his social network is getting barely the same traffic level as the app promoted by his former advisor Jason Millers GETTR app, which is linked to the bankrupt Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui, who bankrolled Steve Bannon.

In recent weeks, sources have heard the former president on the phone swearing gratuitously and asking things like, What the fuck is going on with Truth Social.

There's no RWNJ traffic after last week. That's why Chump's new venture is a failure ... besides the fact that the software sucks. What's a failed insurgent president-wannabe supposed to do?
