Achilles said...: Part of this effort to create a true global town square will be to implement an interface between competing social networks and allow cross pollination between them.

There are some pretty big egos involved.

But they will need to get over it.; 10/28/22, 9:01 AM
traditionalguy said...: The Anti-social media should be a hoot now. Rocket Man against MAGA Man. Now if we can only get Kari Lake to start one too.; 10/28/22, 9:01 AM
What's emanating from your penumbra said...: "Is Trump coming back to Twitter?"

My understanding is that he already said no. But it doesn't really matter. What matters is that he has a choice, just like leftists.; 10/28/22, 9:02 AM
Political Junkie said...: Trump needs to say he has health issues and disappear. He had a wondeful opprtunity and was right on some important issues, but I think much of his personal behavior is too liberal. I like my President conservative in their behavior. Most presidents are conservative in their behavior. Trump was very liberal in his behavior. That is a no go for this conservative.; 10/28/22, 9:07 AM

I would rather see their communications with the FBI, CIA, and NSA.; 10/28/22, 9:20 AM

Now there's some great trolling by the best BS artist of our time.; 10/28/22, 9:21 AM

It seems like Trump could create more attention and media coverage by not rejoining...but always alluding to possibilities.....; 10/28/22, 9:45 AM

And the White House/DNC...; 10/28/22, 9:45 AM
Randomizer said...: Is Elon going to Truth Social?

Interesting times we live in. Two social media platforms led by guys who are confident in themselves and don't mind talking shit. Meanwhile, Zuckerberg is standing around in his virtual world, wondering why nobody wants to play with him.; 10/28/22, 9:50 AM
Paddy O said...: Bigger numbers than all those others, even tiktok?

If true, impressive.

If not true, this is why so many people are looking forward to someone else running in 2024.

I honestly don't know if it's true and the lack of trust and diverting the conversation to a meaningless issue is itself part of the problem.; 10/28/22, 10:11 AM
Paddy O said...: Trump got banned by Twitter. Musk bought it and fired the executives who orchestrated banning. Who's the alpha? And Trump knows who it is and hates it. The get-things-done guy is better than the call things out and whine guy.

Musk likely can choose much better replacements while Trump would pick people others promote who would betray him at the first chance.; 10/28/22, 10:15 AM

WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...: eh - Trump's manner of speaking is ... ugh.; 10/28/22, 10:27 AM
Charles said...: never would/will go to Truth It is a total echo chamber.

I have some hope for Twitter and hope that he does come back to it, the more divers the speakers the more useful it will be.; 10/28/22, 10:29 AM
tim maguire said...: After staying away from twitter for about 5 months, I popped in today to see what's different. Turns out, not much--after less than 10 minutes of reading tweets, I feel dumber and more annoyed.; 10/28/22, 10:41 AM
D.D. Driver said...: BIGGER numbers. The NUMBERS were so huge. Let me tell you, you are seeing NUMBERS like you never seen.

What a tool. "Truth Social" is bigger than TikTok. Loser.; 10/28/22, 10:54 AM
Drago said...: Hunter Biden's tax payer funded Hooker: "eh - Trump's manner of speaking is ... ugh."

I'll bet McConnell had perfect diction as he directed millions more in republican donations to the Murkowski Defeat Republicans campaign.; 10/28/22, 11:07 AM

Howard said...: Trump doesn't need Twitter. Twitter needs him and he has too much character to slink back to that irrelevant platform.; 10/28/22, 11:55 AM
Rusty said...: This is going to interesting. And fun.; 10/28/22, 1:02 PM

Whenever I read someone objecting to Mean Tweets, Porn Stars, or Gold Faucets, I think, hey, try substituting the words “low energy prices, healthy economy, secure borders” for the word “Trump”.; 10/28/22, 1:40 PM
DINKY DAU 45 said...: trump going on twitter would be an admission truth is another fail. We'll watch the fun. Nunes wondering about his job.; 10/28/22, 6:24 PM
WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...: Drago - Disliking Trump's manner of speaking isn't support for Murkowski.

What is wrong with you?; 10/28/22, 9:09 PM
Mark said...: Love the exaggeration about numbers.

Trump epitomizes the old adage about politicians "How do you know they are lying? Their lips are moving"; 10/28/22, 10:09 PM
Drago said...: Hunter Biden's tax payer funded Hooker: "Drago - Disliking Trump's manner of speaking isn't support for Murkowski."

My criticism was directed at McConnell.

Obviously.
