Not sure if rhetorical but the simplest answer is that it doesn’t “own the libs”.
Whatever Trump says is immediately (for some reason) picked up by a bunch of other places so he gets all the attention. I assume this is why he hasn’t moved back to Twitter (I believe his exclusivity deal has ended).
Although I always assumed Musk/Twitter would “acquire” Truth Social for an undisclosed sum (probably $1). It gives Musk the “free speech” argument (which is fucking stupid but we live in stupid times) and it gives Trump the “excellent businessman” story (again, fucking stupid) while also giving him a clean exit.
Of course there is another reason, everyone hates Trump. He is a useful idiot so they’ll say “good job” and “great idea” but no one actually believes in him. Yes he can make fools dance, which is a useful ability, but it will only get you so far. If Trump wasn’t a piece of shit I’d probably feel bad for him. But he is, fuck em.
