Former President Donald Trump’s upcoming social network, called Truth Social, is currently listed on the App Store with an “expected” February 21st launch date, but reports now suggest that the launch has been pushed to March.
ruth Social looks like it will be quite similar to Twitter, which was Trump’s preferred social network before he was permanently banned following the January 6th riots at the US Capitol. Truth Social will be his second attempt at making some kind of new platform; he launched a blog in May, but it was shut down in less than a month. The new app is being made by the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), Trump’s media company helmed by former US Rep. Devin Nunes.
It appears Trump is one of the Truth Social beta testers and has made his first post — though he can’t share that information on Twitter himself. Donald Trump Jr., who still has Twitter privileges, tweeted a screenshot of Trump’s first Truth Social post instead: “Get Ready! Your favorite President will see you soon!”
