A company that exists only so that DJTs comments to social media are on his own platform. “Truth Social” serves no general social media purpose. Thus its revenue from ads is much less than general social media venues because the audience for and on Truth Social is largely a single segment and not general. After DJT leaves office I imagine the rest of the Trump enterprises will have to take Truth Social back to a private company and financially prop it up.

Musk’s moves turning Twitter into X dissolved Trump’s need for a separate Trump social media platform, in any free speech sense.

True
Trump pays a lot for his own mouthpiece
But I get the initial motivation

Without Trumps tweets truth social is nonentitis

Musk’s moves turning Twitter into X ....

This is like Tucker, who lost his usefulness after Biden left.

Tuth Social was formed in 2021 when a conservative platform that could stand up to leftists was needed, before Elon bought Twitter in 2022. as it turned out,Elon made X into a fair platform - but who knows if that will always be true.TS has moved into other ventures. we shall see.
