Trump 'moving forward' with plans to start social media platform: sources

EXCLUSIVE: Former President Donald Trump and his team are "moving forward" with plans to start their own social media platform, sources familiar with the matter told Fox News.

"We're moving forward," one source said Tuesday. "And President Trump will have his voice back one way or another."

The source said they are "taking the time to do it right."

"You have one shot at it," the source said. "We're dotting our Is and crossing our Ts— we'll be out with something."

Trump senior adviser Jason Miller earlier this month hinted at the plans for Trump to create his own form of social media after Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and YouTube permanently banned him from their platforms following the Capitol riot in January.

Just this week, Facebook removed a video of an interview with Trump conducted by his daughter-in-law Lara Trump, saying any content "in the voice of Donald Trump" would be scrubbed from the social media platform.

A group of Trump officials were sent an email from a Facebook employee before the interview was posted, warning that any content posted on Facebook and Instagram "in the voice of President Trump is not currently allowed on our platforms (including new posts with President Trump speaking)" and warned that it "will be removed if posted, resulting in additional limitations on accounts that posted it."

"This guidance applies to all campaign accounts and Pages, including Team Trump, other campaign messaging vehicles on our platforms, and former surrogates," the email, posted on Instagram by Trump's son, Eric Trump, stated.

If he creates his own platform, he can kick all the anti-Trump people off of it. That includes people on the left and the old guard GOP goons. Boot them all off and move it forward.

Alternatively, it seems much easier if he just started posting here. But I would expect that to bring a whole lot more attention and trouble to Jim’s little corner of the Internet than Jim would care to deal with.

Those who can’t manage their affairs without a government handout have pissed away their stimulus bribe checks.

Those who can take care of themselves and their own are sending that money to the lawful president as partial compensation for the theft committed against him last November.

Is this going to be the same social media platform the MyPillow guy is rolling out? Or a different one? Either way, looking forward to it.

75+ million potential users.

I’ve contacted President Trump and suggested that he consider a modest fundraiser to offer his supporters a way of becoming directly involved in his MAGA agenda. If 80 million of his supporters donated only one dollar a month ($12 annually) that 960 million dollars would certainly increase his ability not only to launch his social media platform but to win back the Congress in 2022 and the White House in 2024.

Not sure I’m eligible to receive a check, but if I do receive one I will definitely send it on to President Trump, America’s President in exile. Everyone knows he won the election and that Biden is a fraud masquerading as the POTUS.

I think a membership fee ought to help keep grifters and liberals down to a minimum. I would be willing to pay, plus then you don’t have to have paid advertising.
