Trump promises to make his first post on the new TRUTH Social site.
Donald Trump is getting ready for his return to social media by posting his first message on a beta version of his new platform, TRUTH Social.
“Be ready! In a message that was shared by his son, Donald Trump Jr., Trump said, “Your favorite president will see you soon.” TRUTH Social wants to replace Twitter, which is the site that Trump used to send the message.
Once again, a screenshot of what the former president was doing on the social media site that banned him from using it while he was in the White House made him a big deal.
“It’s time for some truth!!!” It was Tuesday night when Donald Jr. wrote. By early Wednesday, almost 47,000 people had liked the post.
The site is expected to launch on Monday, which is Presidents’ Day. According to its listing on Apple’s App Store, the site mercilessly mocks Twitter and its former CEO, Jack Dorsey, who is now the CEO of Square.
“Jack’s Beard” is the name of a fake user on the site. Dorsey, who co-founded the site, has the username @Jack, which is the same one.
Advertisements for TRUTH Social show the @Jack account telling someone to take down a powerful user’s account and posts, which is a clear reference to Trump’s controversial Twitter ban.
‘Are you going to do that?’ Because it’s a big deal to keep those things from being shown @Jane says: “It’s kind of an overreach, isn’t it?”
The angry emoji on Jack’s screen said, “JUST TAKE IT DOWN.”
A company called TRUTH Social is already letting people sign up for alerts when a new social media platform called “America’s Big Tent” comes out.
The platform says it wants to promote “open, free, and honest global conversation” that doesn’t care about political ideology.
Other people who took part in the beta testing of the app also shared images of Trump’s face on Twitter. Liz Willis, the vice president of operations for the Right Side Broadcasting Network, was one of them.
She shared a screenshot that looked a lot like Trump’s old Twitter account. Trump even used the same headshot. Profile: His had a red tick for verification instead of Twitter’s blue one, and “Truths & Replies” instead of “Tweets & replies.”
You’re going to love the new ‘Truth Social’ app! Willis said that Trump’s planned return to texting was a sign that “the world is healing.”
She wrote, “I can’t wait for everyone to join me!”
Trump supporters have been waiting for the long-delayed platform for a long time now, but not everyone was happy with how much it looked like Twitter.
A self-described “Annoying Liberal” wrote, “So basically a Twitter clone.” Other people wondered if the rival site would have patents that would make it impossible to copy its interface.
They also made memes of screenshots of the beta Trump homepage next to the one before he was banned.
“Can I copy your homework?” one of the memes asked. “Yes, but don’t make it obvious.”
