Truth Social Won't Bail Out

Yes, the company went public. No, it is not a financial success—or even a lifeboat.

Debuting on the charts w/a “DJT” ticker, saw a 55% surge in valuation right after markets opened.

Huge influx of cash, right? w/Trump holding ~79M shares, equating to 58% of available stock, the debut balloons his by nearly $5B; there were ~136M shares outstanding post-merger.

Considering TruthSocial remains a free platform that’s financially dependent on ads…to buy, uh, collectible gold coins of #Trump’s mugshot & pillows manufactured by a broke #ElectionDenier, there’s no real financial lifeline on the horizon. +there are no incentives for more lucrative advertisers, seeing as the 2-yr-old #platform only commands ~5M active users, lost 39% of its active user base over the past yr, & has persistently seen reduced traffic & download numbers from its peak….

Disinformation-peddling #Republicans continue to spread nonsensical racist conspiracy theories to inflame their ignorant voters.

Michigan #GOP State Rep. and #ElectionDenier Matt Maddock saw the #Gonzaga men's basketball team arriving at Detroit's airport and immediately tweeted out false claims that the team buses were actually carrying "illegal invaders."

I asked Rep Don Bacon (R-NE) if the House GOP requires any to be a 2020 election denier. He said no… but then acknowledged it remains a divisive issue that is splintering the House GOP.

Bacon says he believes the results of the 2020 election

Yes, Rep Bacon says he’ll vote for Rep Johnson to be speaker. Other House Republicans, including Rep Ralph Norman (R-SC) predict overwhelming, if not unanimous, GOP vote for Johnson

Trump Mocked E. Jean Carroll Live on CNN. The Audience Laughed.

An hour of pure misogyny.

He called Collins, his interviewer, a “nasty person”—echoing the phrase he once used to refer to his 2016 presidential opponent, Hillary Clinton.
