Donald Trump is the majority shareholder in Trump Media, which owns the Truth Social app. DJT shares fell 20% last week ahead of his New York hush money trial.
Even if Trump does win, posts are very easy to screenshot and share on other platforms. There isn’t a big incentive to get it from truth social instead of waiting for people to share his ramblings all over the news and their preferred social platforms. I never had a Twitter account either, but I saw Trump’s ridiculous tweets shared around all the time. Most people won’t need to go there to see what he is up to. He will get a bump, but not enough to make it the new Twitter.
I never said it would be the next Twitter, but it would become significantly larger than it is now, actually start generating revenue, and funnel a bunch of money Trump’s way.
