He could maybe maybe start a competitor, but I doubt it would work.
1) He doesn't have the energy for another serious project 2) It would end up being something else, which frankly might be welcome, but it won't replace twitter.
Journalists etc. around the world are not going to flock to a 'free speech' platform with little moderation.
They 10x will not do it if Trump is on it, and gaining traction, for example.
Trump himself has never even used the Truth platform. I never said the media "likes" Trump, but they profited from him greatly, he's actually great for business (and arguably great for Democrats.) If Trump were allowed back on Twitter, journalists would decry it for a while and then embrace their renewed social interaction numbers. Outrage is a big seller and when everyone is pissed about something it generates a lot of revenue/clicks/interactions for these media organizations.
Oh yea, I agree with that, I was just indicating that most of the industry is going to avoid him for now for reasons that arguably go against their own bottom line.
It's a toy gun pointed at their head.
