    No. It's totally different. The ticks are red, not blue.

    Trump's Truth Social bomb






    Illustration: Aïda Amer/Axios

    Former President Trump is blowing the launch of his new social media company, via a series of unforced errors.

    Why it matters: The SPAC that agreed to take Truth Social public is valued at over $3.5 billion. At some point, investors will begin paying attention.

    The big picture: Truth Social spent much of February in private beta with invited users, saying its public unveil would be Feb. 21 (President's Day, natch).

    • The launch itself was buzzy, with Truth Social shooting to the top of Apple's App Store (there isn't yet an Android or web version).
    • But the vast majority of people downloading the app, me included, were given a waitlist number. Nine days later, most of us remain on that waitlist, with our number unchanged and without a word of communication from the company. A waitlist "refresh" icon doesn't work.
    • As of this writing, Truth Social has fallen to No. 57 in the App Store, just behind Tinder and Planet Fitness Workouts.


    Trump's role: The former president is Truth Social's founder and chairman, so he obviously bears some responsibility for putting together the team that's so far fallen on its face. But, most importantly, he's not using the app.

    • Trump hasn't posted a single time since the launch, despite an international crisis that has captivated the country. Instead, he's given his comments to radio and TV hosts — including one this morning with Dominion conspiracy theorist Maria Bartiromo — plus via his CPAC speech.
    • Had he limited, or at least prioritized, his reactions to Truth Social, it would have caused every media outlet to mention the app. Same would have applied to last night's State of the Union address.


    This is beginning to remind me a bit of Trump's 2013 foray into crowdfunding, via a site called FundAnything. At launch, Trump said that each week he'd contribute to new FundAnything campaigns and then promote those selections via his (then active) Twitter account. But he soon lost interest, and the site eventually folded.

    • The difference between Truth Social and FundAnything, however, are those publicly traded SPAC securities.
    • And none of this even begins to address the ongoing investigation into the SPAC by federal securities regulators, or that the SPAC won't identify the investors behind $1 billion in contingent PIPE financing. Or that the SPAC sponsor's only other merger effort was a failure.


    The bottom line: The SPAC's investment thesis seems to be that a large percentage of Trump's 88 million Twitter followers will migrate over to Truth Social. But nearly two weeks after launch, his dormant account has fewer than 80,000 followers. And Trump himself is largely to blame.

    I wonder how many people are waiting for it, just to take the piss. And will be blocked as soon as they do, despite no doubt the claims that it's all there to protect the First Amendment.

    I mean I'd join it just to say "Hey you fat orange c u n t, you're a loser!".

    The next post may be brought to you by my little bitch Spamdreth

    He told us how smart he was, and we just wouldn’t believe him.

    ” I know more than the generals do, believe me!“-Donald J Trump


    The Washington Post reported that Trump told donors that the US should take F-22 jets and "put the Chinese flag on them and bomb the shit out" of Russia.
    Trump added: "And then we say, China did it, we didn't do, China did it, and then they start fighting with each other and we sit back and watch."

    Ok, How about his great beautiful wall purportedly the most beautiful wall in existence.

    I don't know how or why that would happen but it'll be the death of his new Truth Social or whatever it's called site which will piss off a lot of people.
    What would be really funny but not likely would be if the new site collapsed and he then got banned from Twitter.
    No doubt Musk sees letting Trump back on as a way to potentially save Twitter.

    Between the 1/6 committee’s criminal referral to the DOJ, to a House committee preparing to release Donald Trump’s tax returns, the former president is starting to face the fire for his years of lies and coverups. MSNBC political analysts Julián Castro and Susan Del Percio join the show to weigh in.

    Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago ...

    "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot someone and not lose votes." These words from Trump are almost prophetic. As another Trump term becomes a real possibility (and in my view a virtual certainty),I believe Europe and the west in general must face the reality that an ongoing American commitment will in the future mean four years and possibly even less depending on the majority in congress.
    A sizeable number of U.S. voters, fairly ignorant of politics outside of America do not see the benefits that have flowed to America from its huge influence around the world and its effects on many countries foreign and even domestic policies.
    I believe Trump will win the Presidency. If Joe Biden is really interested in what is best for the USA he will step down in favour of a younger democrat that can offer a real alternative to Trump. I believe anything less will assure Trumps victory.
    The damage I believe Trump may do to Americas close Allies may damage its influence in the world as countries decide China is a a more consistent partner and pivot away from th U.S.A. This will play into Chinas hands and put the balance of world power into the hands of someone with little or no accountability to its own people.
    Russia has sacrificed its ability to ever be a world power and its influence is now restricted to countries with little political consequence in world affairs. (All those nuclear weapons and no place to go).
    The inward looking Trump will cause much more harm to Americas power and influence in the world than many voters may realise. While many Americans are astute in world economics and politics there seems to be a large proportion of American voters that live in a bubble and have no knowledge or interest in anything outside Americas borders. Americas great leadership in the past that led to the marshall plan and the rebuilding of Europe and Japan after WW2 will never be emulated by China.
    A case in point Ugandas Entebbe airport has just been taken over by China after the Ugandan govt could not repay a Chinese loan, an all to familiar story.
