Donald Trump tried to sell his social network, Truth Social, to Elon Musk, according to insider sources. Musk reportedly refused the offer. Truth Social, a Twitter clone created by Trump, has been struggling since its launch in 2021.
Elon Musk and Donald Trump apparently have a deeper bromance than anyone knew — and the former president even tried to get the owner of the site formerly known as Twitter to buy his dismal social network . Based on insider sources, Trump made Musk an offer he was apparently easily able to refuse: to sell him Truth Social , the Don's crappy Twitter clone that he self-funded after getting kicked off the actual site in early 2021.
Over a year, if you recall, after the ex-president and current GOP front-runner was permabanned from Twitter for inciting a riot on January 6, 2021 — Truth Social has been hemorrhaging both users and money. According to two unnamed sources familiar with the conversation, Trump asked Musk if he was interested in buying Truth Social in the summer of 2023, which would have been less than two years after it launched. When asked about the alleged acquisition discussion, Musk told the newspaper only that he had 'never been to Mar-a-Lago,' and a spokesperson for Trump was similarly opaque. Trump Media spokesperson Shannon Devine quipped, 'but they decided it had no value.
