You may have been wondering when Trump’s new social media site Truth Social would finally arrive. We now have an expected launch date and the day it falls on is so President Trump:
YAHOO NEWS – Former President Donald Trump’s new media venture plans to launch its social media app Truth Social on Feb. 21, according to an Apple Inc App Store listing.
TRUTH Social, the Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) alternative to Twitter, is available for pre-order before going live on the U.S. Presidents’ Day holiday.
Similar to Twitter, the app offers features to follow other people and trending topics, according to demo photos.
TMTG and Apple did not respond to requests for comment, but a source familiar with the matter confirmed that Feb. 21 is the planned launch date of the app.
The launch is expected to be the first of three stages in TMTG’s development. The second would be a subscription video-on-demand service called TMTG+ with entertainment, news and podcasts, according to the company website. A November investor presentation indicated that TMTG also wants to launch a podcast network.
It will be launching on President’s Day, which I find to be hilarious. But even more so than the irony, I think they picked that day because Trump plans on running for president and this is just one of those little hints that he’s running.
In case you are wondering what it will look like, here’s the images from the App Store:
I have a feeling this is going to a huge hit on the right and will dwarf Parler, Gab and GETTR. That is, if it has important features that everyone likes. Can’t wait to find out.
