Now Trump&#8217;s new alt-Twitter project has been dubbed <em>GETTR<\/em>, a name that is a cringeworthy nod to his years of sexually abusive behavior (i.e. GETTR by the pussy). He might have just called the site <em>PREDATTR<\/em>. Or he could have gone another way with <em>TRAITTR<\/em> to highlight his leadership of the insurrection and other anti-American attacks on democracy. The site itself is a shameless ripoff of Twitter. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2021\/07\/01\/gettr-trump-social-media-platform-497606\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Politico is reporting<\/a><\/strong> that:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The platform, called GETTR, advertised its mission statement as &#8216;fighting cancel culture, promoting common sense, defending free speech, challenging social media monopolies, and creating a true marketplace of ideas.'&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Rest assured that Trump and his confederates at GETTR have no intention of providing a <em>&#8220;true marketplace of ideas.&#8221;<\/em> In fact, they have always proven to be <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48542\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the real perpetrators of <em>&#8220;cancel culture,&#8221;<\/em><\/a><\/strong> incapable of grasping common sense, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=49888\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the enemies of free speech<\/a><\/strong>. What&#8217;s more, the marketplace that Trump is entering into is already populated by his addled allies Dan Bongino (Parler), and pillow guy, Mike Lindell (FrankSpeech).<\/p>\n<p>The GETTR app is available now from the Apple and Google stores. It&#8217;s been downloaded a whopping one thousand times from each store. For the record, Twitter currently has 69 million users in the U.S. alone. And GETTR is being pitched with a tag line that was obviously written by someone who doesn&#8217;t speak English. It says that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;GETTR is a non-bias social network for people all over the world. GETTR tried the best to provide best software quality to the users, allow anyone to express their opinion freely.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So what&#8217;s the prognosis for GETTR? Who knows? What we do know is that Trump&#8217;s prior businesses have suffered at least six bankruptcies. His <em>\u201cuniversity\u201d<\/em> was shuttered due to fraud and corruption, and was ordered to pay restitution exceeding $25 million. His private jet is in mothballs His hotels and golf courses are bleeding in debt. And he&#8217;s being pursued by prosecutors from Washington, New York, Florida, and Georgia.<\/p>\n<p>And one more thing.
