President Donald Trump has publicly expressed his desire to establish a new social media platform, and the White House has confirmed that they have been quietly working on a proposal to bring this idea to fruition.
Trump’s desire for a new social media platform comes in the wake of his ban from major platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, following the Capitol riot on January 6th. The former president has been critical of these platforms for stifling conservative voices and has hinted at creating his own platform where free speech would not be limited.
The proposed social media platform would likely cater to and attract Trump supporters and conservative voices who feel marginalized on mainstream platforms. It could also serve as a way for Trump to bypass traditional media and communicate directly with his base.
The White House’s involvement in the development of this platform suggests a level of seriousness and commitment to bringing this idea to fruition. While details of the proposal remain under wraps, it is clear that Trump and his team are determined to make this platform a reality.
The establishment of a new social media platform by a former president would undoubtedly shake up the digital landscape and could potentially change the way political figures interact with the public. It remains to be seen how successful such a platform would be and whether it would truly provide a space for uncensored communication and free speech.
