ormer President Donald Trump made a grand entrance back into the Twitter world by sharing his mugshot on the platform. It’s been a while since Trump graced his followers with his presence, but he’s been busy on his alternative platform, Truth Social. Just last Wednesday, Trump’s account on Truth Social exploded with a series of videos that left everyone buzzing.
One of the videos that caught the attention of Twitter users was a boastful interview he had with Tucker Carlson, formerly of Fox News. Trump proudly claimed that his interview was the “single most watched video and interview in the history of the world.” With a touch of humor, he added, “Two hundred and sixty-two million views and counting. More than doubling the longtime reigning champ, the Oprah Winfrey interview with Michael Jackson.” You gotta give it to him, he knows how to make a statement!

In another video, Trump couldn’t help but gloat about the results of a poll from the University of Georgia’s School of Public & International Affairs. According to the poll, he had the support of 57% of Republican primary voters in Georgia, leaving Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis a whopping 42 points behind. Trump triumphantly declared it a “big win,” emphasizing that Georgia is “absolutely a Republican state” despite the “bad things” that happened there.
Not one to shy away from controversy, Trump took aim at those who are trying to prosecute him. He accused the “radical left Democrats” of orchestrating the indictments and lawsuits against him, describing them as “partisan election interference.” In his signature style, Trump didn’t hold back, calling the justice system a “system of injustice” filled with “Marxists, fascists, communists, and radical left Democrats.” But wait, he did give a nod to the “great American patriots” who see what’s happening to our country. Gotta love his flair for drama!
So, there you have it, folks. Trump is back on social media, making waves and stirring up controversy like only he knows how. Love him or hate him, he certainly knows how to command attention, and his supporters are eating it up.
