Former US President Donald Trump is coming back to social media — but this time with his own network.
A Trump spokesperson Jason Miller, and a long-time adviser and spokesperson for Trump’s 2020 campaign said Trump would be “returning to social media in probably about two or three months.”
He maintained that the platform” would attract “tens of millions” of new users and “completely redefine the game.”
“This is something that I think will be the hottest ticket in social media,” Miller told Kurtz. “It’s going to completely redefine the game, and everybody is going to be waiting and watching to see what President Trump does, but it will be his own platform. “Miller said during his appearance on Fox News that the former president has been approached by numerous companies and is in talks with teams about the new platform.
“This new platform is going to be big,” Miller said on Sunday. “Everyone wants him and he’s going to bring millions and millions — tens of millions — to this platform.
“The announcement comes after Trump was permanently suspended from Twitter and other social platforms, such as Facebook, following his incitement of the US Capitol riots on January 6 — where hundreds of Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol building, leaving five people dead.
Following Trump’s ban on Twitter, Jared Kushner, the former president’s son-in-law and senior adviser, intervened when other aides attempted to get Trump on fringe social media platforms such as Parler and Gab.
