The Washington Post cited an unnamed source saying Trump has been fuming over his app flopping upon its release.Trump is now considering signing up with his former aide's conservative social media platform, per The Post.
Former President Donald Trump might be joining the conservative social media platform Gettr following the lackluster performance of his Truth Social app.
Trump has "privately fumed" about Truth Social's failure to attract a sizeable audience since its launch in February, according to The Washington Post, which cited an unnamed source familiar with the matter.
The source also told The Post that the former president is now considering joining Gettr a competitor to Truth Social that claims it is "founded on the principles of free speech."
Citing its source, the outlet reported that Trump has been holding back from posting on Truth Social because he doesn't believe that the app is "ready for prime time."
Truth Social's current head Devin Nunes, who is also a former Republican congressman, has been attempting to assuage Trump's concerns about the app by giving the latter frequent briefings, per The Post.

“Washington Post cited an unnamed source”
Had to stop reading right there.....I swore off unnamed sources WAY back
Good to see Unnamed Sources is still breathing
I tried to join - they insisted on a “contribution.”
No thanks.
The Washington Post cited an unnamed source saying Trump
This is how the article starts...they aren’t even trying...
What is the percentage of conservatives that frequently use iPhones? They should have held off until they got past their technical issues.
Does It really take months to get off the ground?
New article is up on Fox Business now, too. They were supposed to get it up by now. It is still in testing phase. Still only iPhone so mostly liberals.
The rollout was WAY premature.
I don’t do computer stuff on my phone. I have PCs for that.
Went to sign up; No desktop app
Decided I wanted it bad enough to install it on my phone; iPhone only
Said screw it, I will read about it on FR.
If he can wait a little bit longer he just might be back on Twitter.
Does It really take months to get off the ground?
Yes…..it could take years
At some point an unnamed source becomes an official Anonymous Source, and from there gets promoted to Sources Close To The Issue. It’s only one step from there to Expert.
So conservatives don’t use iPhones? oy vey....
Unfortunately there are real issues with Truth Social..I have been trying ever since it was available to sign up, cant get passed putting in my phone number, the second I do it says “Oops something went wrong try again” happens every single time
why can’t we just have 1 or maybe a few sites we all go to? why does every body have to start their own club? Even for Trump theres tons of alternatives he could have supported instead of rolling his own.
BI is a worthless cesspool but.. so far Truth is a embarrassment. I remain in the wait list after a month. I don’t know anyone who has been able to use it.
I doubt that. Rush was a die hard Apple junkie/iphone user. No doubt that prompted many conservatives to buy one.
unnamed source
gossip and smears
