Truth Social is a bust. Then again, its creator isn't doing anything on it, and........

 Donald Trump will be 76 in June. One more sign that he's not entirely, ah, with it, if ya will, comes in the form of how quickly his social media venture, Truth Social, is tanking, and instead of looking for scapegoats to blame for the inevitable demise, the former president should consider raging in front of a mirror.

Farron Cousins explains:


2 million viewers at the start, shrunken down to roughly 300,000 two weeks later. No subscribers because of a screw-up that hasn't been repaired. It doesn't help, either, that Trump had designed it so that subscribers would not be allowed to post negative comments. In other words, it was meant to be an extension of the bloviating man-child himself, who wants to read people praising him, not dissing him. Dude, it comes with the territory!

Add the fact that Trump has used the site just once himself, opting to continue to play his little game of chicken with Twitter instead of tending to his own farm, if ya will. Easy way to discourage interest. Once word got out that you couldn't use the forum to shred the former president for being a self-absorbed jackass, Truth Social's days were instantly numbered. 

They say preparation is the key to proper planning. Trump doesn't know a blueprint from a blueberry, much less a Blackberry. They'll be writing Truth Social's obituary in about 2-4 months.
