Here we go again.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has denied Trump’s request to trademark the name Truth Social.
CBS News reported:
"A U.S. government agency has rejected a trademark application by Donald Trump’s Truth Social because the social network’s name isn’t unique enough.
In a filing from August 2, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office said Truth Social’s name is too similar to other businesses, which could cause consumers to be “confused, mistaken or deceived as to the commercial source of the goods and/or services of the parties.”"
The reason cited is that the name is not unique enough and is similar to other businesses.
The examples of similar companies that were given are Vero – True Social and the Truth Network.
The Daily Mail reported:
The patent office said the name of the company was too similar to Vero – True Social, an app-based social media platform, and the Truth Network, a Christian radio broadcast network.
They wrote in their filing that ‘the dominant wording TRUTH and TRUE communicate the same idea of being honest or emphasizing fact while networking socially’.
Trademark attorney Josh Gerben explained more about the application rejection.

They’re coming for his overdue books!
He didn’t get pre-approval to paint his shed?
His new roof is not in keeping with the rustlc aesthetic of the Village?
He’s missing a mattress tag?
He taped an episode of Bonanza without expressed written consent on his Beta player?
Sheesh even the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has been Politicized.
Except for the DoD, cut every department, agency, administration budget by 85%, then quickly eliminate most of them.
What's a little thing like a trademark application?

Oops, paragraphs are important too
More political corruption. Who in their life has ever heard of anything else called “Truth Social”? Many possible problems could arise for Truth Social because of this. And the deep state is already planning them out.
It never ends.
But “THE” is OK for “The” Ohio State University??
I don’t get this. I’ve applied for and gotten a half-dozen trademarks, and always before I launched a business.
Just checked USPTO.gov. The three patent applications for “truth social” are all listed as live. That means they have not been rejected.
You get a pass because it’s only 4 sentences anyway. 😋
