Former U.S President Launches Social Media App

Former Republican President of the United States of America Donald J. Trump has launched a social media network, “TRUTH Social” which he says will stand up to giant platforms such as Facebook and Twitter.

Reuters news agency reports that TRUTH Social will be created through a new company formed by a merger of the Trump Media and Technology Group, TMTG, and a special acquisition company (SPAC), according to a press release distributed by both organizations.

Donald Trump, who had now been banned from Twitter has criticized the huge platforms for ousting him despite it being used by more radical bodies across the globe. “We live in a world where the Taliban has a huge presence on Twitter, yet your favorite American President has been silenced. This is unacceptable,” Trump said in a written statement.

He said “I am excited to send out my first TRUTH on TRUTH Social very soon. TMTG was founded with a mission to give a voice to all. I’m excited to soon begin sharing my thoughts on TRUTH Social and to fight back against Big Tech,”

The former president has maintained that the mission of his new platform is to create “a rival to the liberal media consortium and fight back against the Big Tech companies.”
