News “reporters” spend far too much time digging around to find dirt on Trump, and zero time investigating deaths caused by the vax.

Trademark infringement requires (at least) two things:

1. Identity or similarity of the marks; and

2. Identity or similarity of the good/services the mark is registered for (there are 45 “classes” of goods and services)

to a degree that the consumer would confuse the provenance of the goods/services of the one company for the other.

Not likely here, is it?

"You would think that someone would have at least done a reverse-lookup image search first..."

Its hard enough getting GOPers to check for usage rights for pics!

It’s a different logo, so I doubt they’ll sue because they wouldn’t win. But if they make a stink it’s free publicity for their company from all the Trump-hating media.

Lol, if a cop asks you to recite the Masonic alphabet just do the secret handshake and he’ll probably let you go.

The “T” seems to be based off a letter in the Masonic alphabet

Who knew that Henry Ford was a Mason.

Trump needn’t worry about a thing. Totally different classes. Likelihood of confusion is minimal, if at all.

Wonder if the graphic designer set out to sandbag Truth Social? Wouldn't be the first time. Thinking of the writer who "helped" Melania with her RNC speech by copying Michelle Obama's. And why did they pick blue?

Trailar (L); Truth Social (R):

Both logos use block-style shapes that form the letter “T” – making Truth Social a target of dozens of comments and comparisons with the logo for the British firm, which sells solar panel technology.

So they're concerned people might confuse Trump's social media platform with a solar panel distributor?

Should a Christian be a Mason?
