In case you hadn’t heard today, the media is hopping with all the rage of the big news that Twitter ended up accepting Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s $44 billion deal for the popular social media platform company, after several weeks of bizarre back and forth and a lot of reluctance from Twitter’s board that apparently came to an end today.
Ever since the mere idea of Musk purchasing the social media platform came on the scene, the Conservative crowd has been hopeful that the Tesla billionaire would reinstate their Lord and Savior Donald Trump, who lost his account on his favorite platform indefinitely, after his behavior regarding the 2020 presidential election, that reached a catastrophic crecendo on January 6th.
But despite all the demands from his “people” it looks like the one-term, twice-impeached former guy is far too damn bitter to make a Twitter comeback, even if the new owner decides to let him back on.
During a new interview with Fox News today, ex-President Donald Trump announced that he would not be returning to the social media platform, even if Musk did decide to reinstate his account, and would instead be sticking to his own new social media platform, Truth Social.

“I am not going on Twitter, I am going to stay on TRUTH,” Trump told the Right-wing outlet today. “I hope Elon buys Twitter because he’ll make improvements to it and he is a good man, but I am going to be staying on TRUTH.”
This whole situation goes from funny to hilarious, though, considering Donald Trump doesn’t even use his own flailing platform — that’s been riddled with problems ever since it’s embarrassing launch.
Trump seemed to acknowledge that he hasn’t been on Truth Social much since its inception, but told the Conservative outlet, that openly denied having their own Truth Social account recently after a fake popped up on the platform, that he plans to start using it more this week.
The former president also went on to claim during the interview that Truth Social is a far better app than Twitter, which he says is riddled and bogged down with bots.
“We’re taking in millions of people, and what we’re finding is that the response on TRUTH is much better than being on Twitter,” Trump said. “Twitter has bots and fake accounts, and we are doing everything we can… The bottom line is, no, I am not going back to Twitter.”
We really couldn’t make this hot mess up if we tried.
