The press release, verbatim:

President Trump
Former U.S. President Donald Trump
Trump Media & Technology Group and Digital World Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: DWAC) have entered into a definitive merger agreement, providing for a business combination that will result in Trump Media & Technology Group becoming a publicly listed company, subject to regulatory and stockholder approval. The transaction values Trump Media & Technology Group at an initial enterprise value of $875 Million, with a potential additional earnout of $825 Million in additional shares (at the valuation they are granted) for a cumulative valuation of up to $1.7 Billion depending on the performance of the stock price post-business combination. Trump Media & Technology Group’s growth plans initially will be funded by DWAC’s cash in trust of $293 Million (assuming no redemptions).

Trump Media & Technology Group’s mission is to create a rival to the liberal media consortium and fight back against the “Big Tech” companies of Silicon Valley, which have used their unilateral power to silence opposing voices in America.

Trump Media & Technology Group (“MTG’) will soon be launching a social network, named “TRUTH Social.” TRUTH Social is now available for Pre-Order in the Apple App store. TRUTH Social plans to begin its Beta Launch for invited guests in November 2021. A nationwide rollout is expected in the first quarter of 2022. Those who are interested in joining TRUTH Social may now visit www.truthsocial.com to sign up for the invite list.

President Donald J. Trump, the Chairman of MTG, stated, “I created TRUTH Social and TMTG to stand up to the tyranny of Big Tech. We live in a world where the Taliban has a huge presence on Twitter, yet your favorite American President has been silenced. This is unacceptable. I am excited to send out my first TRUTH on TRUTH Social very soon. TMTG was founded with a mission to give a voice to all. I’m excited to soon begin sharing my thoughts on TRUTH Social and to fight back against Big Tech. Everyone asks me why doesn’t someone stand up to Big Tech? Well, we will be soon!”

MacDailyNews Note: Apple’s App Store currently hosts a preorder page for the TRUTH Social app which states, verbatim:

Big Tent is a new way to describe “inclusivity” in America. Think of a giant outdoor event tent at your best friend’s wedding. Who’s there? The combination of multiple families from all over the United States, and the world. Uncle Jim from Atlanta is a proud libertarian. Aunt Kellie from Texas is a staunch conservative. Your cousin John from California is a die-hard liberal. And guess what? They’re all together to have an amazing time and share their viewpoints of the world. Although we don’t always agree with each other, we welcome these varied opinions and welcome the conversation.

        1. Yeah, who wants or needs working supply chains, secure borders, low fuel prices, record low unemployment, stores with fully stocked shelves, low inflation, peace breaking out across the Middle East, a powerless Taliban, China on notice, North Korea contained, etc., etc., etc.

          The “establishment” is basically a group of idiots sucking off the gubmint teat for their entire lives who have never had to produce anything of value. They generally FUBAR everything they touch and then tax you to cover their asses, which fools like you seem to enjoy endlessly kissing.

      1. Anywhere else in the World and thankfully for half of America at least, he and his ilk ARE the Establishment, politicians if they are doing their job properly are just the moderators or their power broking ways. But love the irony in this move should provide more amusement if little else constructive.

        1. “Joe Biden is a vegetable” (see above) is NOT a blatant ad hominem attack. We can’t help it if you can’t see or handle the truth for what it is.

        1. Why would I bother? Any information I provide that accurately debunks any of your beliefs will be shot down as a product of “Liberal” or “Main Stream” media bias. But here’s the thing, you know none of it is true but you push out the lies anyway because to admit anything else would somehow mean that “Liberals” are right. Which you will never do.

        2. Liars in general are never right which is why I can’t understand how anyone can believe what many on the right say, Trump included, when it’s proven they lie. So odd.

      1. Couldn’t agree more. And the best way to make your point and prove all the haters and losers wrong is to NOT get vaccinated, NOT wear masks, take LOTS of livestock dewormer, and most importantly, get together with like-minded people in enclosed spaces to make your voices heard. That’ll teach us!

      1. Why should Trump be in jail? The FBI, DOJ and EVERY democrat in the country has been after him since June 17, 2015. In six plus years, they haven’t been able to jail him. Why is that?

        A) He is too smart to get caught.
        B) They are too dumb to catch him.
        C) He committed no crime.

        1. Considering you are a complete MORON and incompetent of staying on topic you choose to ridiculously mention WMD in 2003. Absolutely nothing to do with the post and President Trump’s venture into social media. Obviously you carry a huge chip on your shoulder all these years later.

          You described yourself perfectly: “I’d go for option C. Twiddle dee and twiddle dumb.” …

    1. LOL. You and your kind, when it comes to Trump, have been saying “5 months before imploding” for the last 5 years!

      When it comes to “smarts” you have set the bar really, really, REALLY, low!

      1. Well he did lose the election (and the popular vote) by the largest margin in modern history. It’s only the antiquated electoral college that gives conservatives any chance of winning since they can’t get elected on policy.

        1. Yet every Republican nominee in recent memory has lost the popular vote and needed the Electoral College to even come close to winning. Funny how a Canadian knows more about your elections than many Americans.

          The US is overwhelming moving towards being a progressive and liberal society. The right wing know this and so exist on lies, the electoral college and gerry gerrymandering. You can deny all you like but that is the truth. And you know it.

        2. Your opinion is a volume of fiction.

          The popular vote is the vote of the mob mentality in a handful of blue precincts in California and New York that could sway every election.

          Obviously you don’t like it, but the founding fathers are a lot smarter than Leftists and established the Electoral College to give a voice to smaller states and communities.

          “The US is overwhelming moving towards being a progressive and liberal society.”

          NO, the Democrat Party RECENTLY has been overtaken by the Leftist Socialist Squad headed by Sanders and AOC. Get your facts straight.

          The MAJORITY of American people are NOW galvanized more than ever to fight and save our Democrat Republic from the Leftist whack job know it all’s, that know NOTHING.

          “You can deny all you like but that is the truth. And you know it.”…

        3. Seems to me that the last few Republican Presidential wins owed primarily to gerrymandering precincts in contortions to favor wins in the majority of voting districts. Remove gerrymandering before you discount the popular vote affecting the Electoral College. Gerrymandering in concert with the all-or-nothing College votes by most of the States also twists the results.

  1. “We’ve learned and struggled for a few years here figuring out how to make a decent phone,” he said. “PC guys are not going to just figure this out. They’re not going to just walk in.” – Palm CEO Ed Colligan

    Pepperidge Farms remembers!

    1. Bless him for referring to smartphones as “machines” such a better term than “devices”. Whatever you want to say about him he was a character with some energy, compared to Apple’s multi-culti, emotionless, non-entity, wet noodle parade 2-3 times a year.

        1. …from all the pathological liars in the news media, Hollywood and Democratic party indoctrinating you long before Trump ever came along!

  2. I’m In With Trump.
    Liberal ideas are destroying our one e great country.
    So you got butt hurt because of his personality. Lol good. We didn’t elect him on his personality. Finally a guy comes in and tried to change things and run the county like a business and put America First.
    It seem you libs are hoping America fails and do lent care. What is joe doing? Bueller? Anyone? Is he there? Where is The Vp?
    All the fake stories of Russian whatever and then I joes boy the dope feign was really true. Cmon man. I want Hillary in jail. You libs are total losers. Go to live in China if you don’t like it here.

    1. I’m sorry but Trump creates hate and makes the nation split. He uses social media like a certain German dictator used radio and TV to spread his ideology. And we know where that led. His speeches are intriguing for the ones that share his view and don’t question the authenticity of the statements. He’s been caught with so many lies. He has contradicted himself over and over again, more than any other politician that I have heard of. Has he finished the wall? No, and part of it has fallen apart. Has Mexico paid for the wall? No, but he said that Mexico would. These are just two of many examples.

      1. How’s that Joe Biden UNITY coming along?!?

        I didn’t know Obama was from Germany?

        Lied and contradicted himself more than any politician you have heard of, hmm, introductions are needed. The Texan meet Joe Biden. Joe Biden, meet The Texan.

        The wall fallen apart, like everything in the Biden Administration, just lower your expectations.

        Before I begin worrying about Mexico paying for a wall, I’m still waiting to Keep My Doctor, Keep My Plan!

      2. “I’m sorry but Trump creates hate and makes the nation split.”

        First off, you are not a Texan just another Leftist pulling the wool over our eyes. Unless you are a California regressive moving to Austin and have not learned anything.

        No, and pay very close ATTENTION — Democrats and Democrat media FOSTER HATE. Us vs. them Dems do anything to increase their power.

        “Has he finished the wall?”

        Hey brainless, Biden stopped construction and millions of dollars of construction material sit idle. Hello?…

        1. Your Biden article is from APRIL 2020—he hardly got his disaster going back then. Since then it’s been proved that Biden has the opposite of the Midas touch. Everything Biden has touched has turned to shit. Border is a mess, inflation is high, what he’s done with shot mandates is terrible for critical workers we desperately need (I got mine so not saying that because of myself), he rarely stays to answer any media questions, he takes off for Delaware all the time, made a disaster out of the Afghan withdrawal with piles of dead, pissed off our allies, incites internal division in the country, weighs in on opinions of verdicts yet to be determined in court, begs OPEC for expensive oil while we WERE independent and gas was cheap before he took office, he’s pumped up racial division, crime is everywhere (especially big Democrat run cities) and more I can’t even think of now. He’s a disaster, but I’m not sure it’s really him, he’s so senile, I think the blame goes to the team behind him making all the decisions. Years ago he was never a star, and kinda stupid, (remember Obama himself saying “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to fuck things up.” And he was right—he warned us all. I voted for Obama, and Clinton. Not Joe.

          Trump had a roaring economy, lowest job rates for minorities EVER, low gas prices—we were energy independent of the Middle East, and lots of peace treaties in the Middle East. The Mexico border was under control, and so was the Middle East,. The only US race divisions that occurred were when CNN and MSNBC chopped Trumps quotes into saying something negative like they wished he said, when if you listened to the ENTIRE thing, it was not at all what they implied it was. And if it wasn’t for Trump, Biden wouldn’t have any vaccines to distribute, he got it going at warp speed when he was told it would take years. I could go on, but it’s Thanksgiving and I’m a bit busy. Nothing I say will change your mind anyway. Let’s see how things are 2022 when Joe’s team really gets going.

  3. Wow, a social media platform with all capital letters. Think that they are compensating for something? Hasn’t he tried to create one before? Trump It? GETTR?
    And that MDN comment, in bold letters. Does that mean for once that I’ll be able to post without getting a personal ad hominem attack? I sure hope that MDN actually knows what that means, because from my prior experience the majority of my post results in personal attacks. I’ll be very surprised…pleasantly so.
    On topic: I’m sure it will be as successful as his other ventures into social media platforms.

    1. Be afraid, Leftists, be very Afraid.

      You earned personal attacks bad mouthing the USA incessantly for years.

      How does it feel to be a hypocrite living in a totalitarian nation?…

  4. Today the NIH officially admitted that Dr. Fauci and Dr. Frances Collins of NIH both repeatedly lied to Congress when they denied funding “gain of function bioweapon” research in collusion with the Chinese Communist Party and the Wuhan Bioweapon Research center. So, Fauci lied to cover his part in the creation of COVID, an unnatural virus that “gains function” to be more effective as a killer virus. And then Fauci used the scary COVID he created to shutdown the American economy and to turn Americans into pathetic, scared, obedient sheep all wearing masks and not going to church and looking to Washington to save their lives. Maybe with a “vaccine” created by the same evil sociopath who created the COVID super virus with the Chinese and then lied over and over and over denying he did what he did. Hopefully Trump will use his network to lead a massive attack on those who used our government to attack our own people with two bioweapons. First, COVID, then the vaccine which is worse. Of course, this will require Trump to admit he erred in following Fauci and in his present day full throated support for the vaccine Fauci created. The people who foisted this attack on the world need to be tried, convicted and executed. Every single one who took part.

  5. Thanks MDN for nothing. As I’m not an American voter and but rather a Mac fan and shareholder from Australia.
    I had been enjoying your MDM feed post Trump loosing the election without all the political rubbish that you’ve been posting at every opportunity over the last few years when Trump was president which deterred me visiting your website for awhile.
    Please return to posting only MacDailyNews tech news like you used to before the Trump era. I know you will argue that his new app on the App Store is Mac news but it seems more like political promotion and click bate to me.

    1. Especially now that the organization working on the site are being sued by the open source group that own the code for breach of the usage agreement for the source code being used to build and run the ‘TRUTH’ site.

  6. I still think that social networks are very helpful to us, as using various social networks you can communicate with others, which allows you to work together on projects or even connect with the teacher if you have questions about the assignment. You can read more article https://thesmallbusinessblog.net/social-media-can-aid-in-studying/ about how social networks can help us in our studies. Since you may not always be in class, media tools allow you to keep in touch with others.

  7. I don’t like FB.. but please can someone who isn’t a narcissistic liar (both proven facts) please create a viable alternative. Trump would know the truth if if bit him on the ass.

  8. I was waiting for Trump-TV at $6.99 month but I guess this makes more sense to those in Mar-a-Lago.

    Interesting how “Truth” will not allow itself to be critiqued. I always thought the truth was the truth because it passed the tests of being critiqued ?
