The event starts off per tradition, and the first few moments are filled with pleasantries and introductions.
But then Trump answers the first official question.
The crowd is stunned by what they hear.
In rebuttal, Secretary Clinton merely shrugs and says no, totally.
Trump leaves his podium to join Clinton.
That never happened
But, essentially, thats what life is like on conservative social media sites.
No, theyre not writing Trump/Clinton fan-fiction over on Parler, Gab, and GETTR.
At least that would providesomesort of controversy or drama.
Its just boring over there.
Per Ivans article:
Earlier this week, Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene got permanently banned from Twitter and Facebook.
So she and her supporters might be looking for a new home (beyond the likes of Gettr).
Itll be interesting to see how things play out.
Dont get me wrong, theres a lot to be said for targeted marketing.
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindells incredible success came on the back of the MAGA movement.
But MyPillow doesnt compete directly with Facebook, Apple, Twitter, Microsoft, and Google.
And Twitter boasts approximately 206 million users per day.
And with a fraction of the users.
Hows that going so far?
While we wait for TRUTH to launch, lets take a look at GETTR.
The home of such recent converts as Joe Rogan and MAGA faithful Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Rogan hasnt posted on GETTRin over four days.
For comparison, hes posted several times a dayon Twitterover the same period.
And Greene, well, she has two verified accounts on GETTR.
We cant tell if those numbers include the approximately 465K Twitter followers she had before the shutdown.
It comes with the promise that itll be the former presidents personal platform.
Thats almost identical to the TOS you agree to when you sign up to use a Twitter account.
And TRUTH almost surely wont be a free-for-all either.
You wont be able to post bomb recipes, pornography, or illegal images.
If you take a stab at sell molly on TRUTH, youll probably get snitched out to the feds.
And therein lies the problem.
It would be boring as hell.
At the end of the day, theres no exit strategy for TRUTH.
Its built on open-source software.
The only thing conservative social media has to offer that its mainstream competitors dont have is Trumps posts.
And well be able to read those on millions of MAGA Twitter posts seconds after theyre posted on TRUTH.
If there are no libs to own or left-wing views to dispute, whats the point?
