Despite being ousted from the nation's biggest social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and others alike, Former President Trump isn't giving up on his dreams to circulate his posts across the globe. Here’s how he'll do it.



After months of speculation that the Former President, who was expelled from the world's largest social media giants in January following the shocking turn of events on the evening of January 6th, 2021, Donald Trump is set to publish an alternative platform for his supports, and right-wingers alike, as a ‘‘free-speech’’ substitute to the often ‘‘fact-checking’’ and ‘‘bias censoring” tech-companies. Trump, and his newly founded tech company, T Media Tech LLC, combined forces with the previously disseminated publically traded company, the Digital World Acquisition Corp, to eventually create the long-awaited, and long-promised Social Media App, ‘‘TRUTH Social.’’ Since the onset of his near year-long absence from major social media platforms, Trump has issued statement, after statement, claiming to be working on a developing Social Media brand, and for the most part, users of Twitter, and other citizens reacting to the developing stories about Trump's social media company, at the time, disregarded his claims, some even saying that “trump will keep saying this, he'll never actually have his ‘own’ network.’’ On Late Wednesday, however, in the aftermath of Spokeswoman Liz Harrington’s announcement of the launching of “Truth Social,” Twitter users, and other social media account holders are pushing the upcoming launch of Trump's Social Media company to the forefront of the societal conversation. In fear of TRUTH social, overtaking the left-leaning tech-giants of the social media industry, leftist stars on Twitter immediately attempted to hack the site on Thursday, and for a few hours, they were allegedly successful in their pursuit to hack the site. Fear of a “free-speech’’ site, that remains un-limitless to political opinions that challenge the left’s agenda is becoming mainstream amongst democrats. Their fear of opposition, or difference of opinion is the thought that propelled the “cancel-culture” movement to the core of American society. The same fear is what is renewing calls for “Truth Social” to be removed from the app store, even before its scheduled release in February. This widespread paranoia over political opposition has become the hallmark of the democratic philosophy in recent years and is the basis for a potentially dangerous future in America.
