i’m out of the loop. why does it say “retruth”? is there a new social media that i don’t know about?
oh my god. who’d wanna sign up for a service run by that dumbass lol
The same people who will vote for him.
there was an IPO and a bunch of idiots invested in it!
Mostly as a way to hand money to Trump.
Wait, it runs on Mastodon? Could they federate? Are they already federating but blocked by all the other instances?
I don’t get it
I feel like this is a reference to when DeSantis announced his presidential run on a Twitter stream, but it went horribly and was riddled with technical failures.
Now Trump has agreed to be interviewed by Musk on the same kind of stream.
Ah ok
Also apparently Trump’s interview was tonight and went just as poorly as DeSantis’s announcement

Like the four seasons (landscaping) all over again
How do they keep getting the most important moments so wrong? What an abject failure of a platform.
Don’t these journalists know that they could self-publish their microblogs? It would be so easy for them to set up their own Mastodon instance, and they would not have to worry about being verified, or kowtowing to the whims of a fascist.
