Trump's Twitter clone now has an app but isn't yet a functioning social network
Photo-Illustration: Stefani Reynolds/AFP via Getty Images The app for former president and failed blogger Donald Trump’s MAGA-friendly Twitter clone has been launched in Apple’s App Store, but the network itself does not appear to have been at all ready for prime time — or at least actual users.
The New York Times reported Friday that the Truth Social network, which has apparently been in beta since December, was originally supposed to be launched to the public this President’s Day, but the launch date had to be bumped to late March.
It thus appears that Trump Media & Technology Group — the parent company behind Truth Social being run by Devin Nunes, a former California congressman and alleged dairy farmer who tried and failed to sue a tweeting cow — just decided to release the app by itself. The iOS app, which was the No.
Android users will need to wait to join the waiting list using an app; the status of the Android Truth Social app is still “coming soon.” Another potential issue for Truth Social, other than its derivative website design, is the investigation by federal regulators into the SPAC merger Trump Media & Technology Group is attempting.
Whatever the various holdups, the Republican Party has already been blasting out texts promoting the availability of the premature iOS app, as an apparent part of the GOP’s ongoing evolution into a tag-along marketer for an aggrieved private citizen and his private for-profit enterprises.
