Fox News Surprised to Learn It's on Trump's Truth Social

Twitter reject Donald Trump launching his own social-media site where “tweets” are called “truths” is inherently hilarious. But Truth Social is really outdoing itself in its apparent quest to make its name as ironic as possible.

Truth Social is billed as a bastion of free speech where users can speak their minds and read the musings of people who have been “canceled” by Twitter and other social-media companies (like, most importantly, Trump himself). Devin Nunes, who resigned from Congress to be CEO of the Trump Media & Technology Group, explained on Fox News earlier this year, “Our main goal here is to give people their voice back … the opposite of some Silicon Valley tech-oligarch freak telling people what they want to think and deciding who can or cannot be on the platform.”

But nearly two months after its launch on Apple’s App Store, few are able to express or learn any “truths” on the Twitter clone. Trump himself has only posted once. Most people simply can’t access Truth Social, as it’s not available on the Google Play Store and there is no desktop version. Many iPhone users who did manage to create an account were put on a wait list that doesn’t appear to be moving (Truth Social said I was number 1,385,001 on March 24, and today I’m still number 1,385,001).

Hey MSNBC - literally none of these are real issues!

We should be telling Fox News to fuck off. This is literally playing right into their playbook. If we want the country to be run by spoiled toddlers and the fucking morons running in Georgia, we'll call them. But we need the adults in charge right now.
