Donald Trump’s latest boast about his crowd size fell apart in a hurry as he was fact-checked in real-time while he was still speaking.

“We do a lot of these beautiful rallies, and it’s so great,” the former president said in Reading, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday. “We never have an empty seat, never have, look at it.”

Just one problem: While the sections closest to the stage were packed with MAGA faithful, there were plenty of empty seats toward the back of the venue ― and observers began sharing images of them on social media almost immediately.

    I doubt he cares what people call his platform. All musk cares about is that people still use it. That what sells ads

    However I think the more we keep referring to what it was, the longer people will continue to use it. X deserve the same treatment as truth social.

    I guess my opinion is pretty unpopular for a lot of different reasons but I think the longer we call it Twitter the slower it dies.

      Disagree. A clown with an ego like what he has would be incredibly butt-hurt if people didn’t fall in line with his bullshit. Just like his hero, Trump- he falls apart when people don’t play along.

      So… I’ll keep calling it Twitter because I don’t want it to die, I just want it to fail- and remain a monument of his failure until long after he is gone.

      Musk is a baby-man. Calling it by its old name HAS to piss him off because of his narcissism.
