Sunday 15 May 2022 03:07 PM Trump claims Musk WON'T buy Twitter and urges people to use Truth Social trends now

Donald Trump predicted that Elon Musk would not buy Twitter, and promoted his own social media platform, Truth Social, at a rally in Texas on Saturday. 

'I don't believe he is going to buy Twitter,' Trump said of Musk, 'Because you have so many fake accounts with the bots... all of the different things I think it is going to be very interesting.'

Trump's comments came a day after Elon Musk tweeted that his $44billion deal to buy twitter was 'on hold,' and two days after the Tesla founder said that Trump should not run for president in 2024, but that his Twitter ban should be lifted.

'And he's got some problems 'cause he bought some stock that he shouldn't have bought, he's got a a lot of problems with Twitter. But Twitter has a lot of problems.'

Trump then promoted his own Twitter-imitating social media platform, Truth Social.  

'So go to Truth Social. I think you're going to find that Truth is great. We tell the truth!' he exclaimed. 

'I think it's great we got that name,' Trump continued, 'We're driving the radical left crazy. We have something called truth. We don't say we're put out a tweet, we say, we put out a truth. They go totally crazy. So go, sign up.'

Trump was speaking at a rally in Austin, Texas, as a part of his 'American Freedom Tour,' where a marquee over the stage read 'It's time to win back America.'

Trump launched Truth Social in 2021 after he was permanently banned from Twitter on January 8, days after his supporters stormed the Capitol and forced senators into secure rooms as they certified the election results in favor of Biden. On Thursday, Musk tweeted that he felt that ban should be lifted.
