The new social networking application of former United States President Donald Trump, Truth Social, has started this Sunday night and is expected to be available by the end of March. "fully operational" and thus end the ostracism to which he was relegated after the main platforms decided to silence him.
"This week we will begin its rollout in the Apple app store" and "by the end of March it will be fully operational, at least in the United States"has advanced Devin Nunes, a former member of the House of Representatives, who resigned from the position to lead the new initiative of media and social networks of the former president of the United States, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG).
"We want them to tell us what they would like to see on the platform, which is the opposite of a Silicon Valley tech oligarch telling people what they want to think and deciding who can or cannot be on the platform."Nunes has said on Fox News.
The main social networks vetoed Trump’s accounts as a result of the assault on the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021 and his rhetoric against the legitimacy of the results of the November 2020 presidential elections in which he was defeated by Joe Biden.
Truth Social aims to be the alternative, for example, to that Twitter profile in which Trump had close to 90 million followers. A platform from which he had been very prolific both in disseminating his policies at the head of the White House and in his attacks and criticisms of political rivals, the media, and even the platform itself.
In the previous days, the allies of the former president have come out to celebrate the imminent launch of this new platform, which has been promoted as a space in which freedom of expression is not attacked.
"the truth is coming"Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, chair of the Republican Conference in the House of Representatives, wrote on Twitter last Friday. "I am so excited to be at Truth!"celebrated.
