Frequently bankrupt businessman and former Republican President Donald Trump has recently launched yet another bespoke social media platform, an app called Truth Social that seems poised to be as roaring a success as his first faceplant of an attempt at his own social media platform last year.

Naturally, since Trump is banned from every legitimate social media platform for life, he's enlisted his eldest failson Donald Trump Jr. to promote Truth Social for him.

Big mistake. Trump Jr. took to Twitter yesterday to brag about his daddy's new vanity project, and as per usual turned the thing into a massive self-own instead--which at this point is kind of his specialty.

Take a look at Jr.'s unfortunate tweet below and see if you can spot the hilariously sad details that have the internet roasting him to a crisp.

Along with the very impassioned caption "Time for some Truth!!!," Trump Jr. included a screenshot of Donald Trump's first post on Truth Social, which read:

"Get Ready! Your favorite President will see you soon!"

Standard self-aggrandizing Trumpian boilerplate, right? But a look at the finer details reveals a different picture. First of all, the layout of the post is so visually identical to Twitter it will almost surely result in a lawsuit.

But even more hilarious are the post's time-stamp and number of likes, which show that Trump's big launch only racked up 49 likes in 24 hours. "Your favorite President," eh? LOL okay, Mr. Trump!

It was just the latest gaffe in the launch of Truth Social, with has been besieged with foibles including a large-scale hack--which hilariously included Trump's own account--within hours of its being announced last October.

And of course, Twitter came in hot with the roasts.










Anyway, Truth Social is under investigation by the SEC, and as a result, short-sellers, the financial investors who bet on a stock or company failing, are flocking to its eponymous parent company Trump Media.

We wish Mr. Trump the best of luck in this exciting new endeavor!

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
