I saw this article yesterday which features an MSNBC clip where they ridicule it: > “…straight back to '95, baby.” > **[MSNBC host hilariously mocks Trump for starting 1995-style LiveJournal as his...](https://www.rawstory.com/trump-social-media-live-journal/)** > > In a hilarious moment on MSNBC Tuesday evening, host Ari Melber ridiculed President Donald Trump's new "social media platform," that he said is nothing more than a blog from the 1990s.

It’s generally in his tone, but dialed down to about a 4 or 5 out of 11, and the grammer is much too good-- complete sentences and no weird random capitalizations. A couple places where quote marks are around words that don’t need them, but it came off as more somebody trying to copy trump’s style. ---

> [@Hari\_Seldon](#): > > Just heard on the news that the Facebook ban has been upheld.   Sort of. Conservative media who had been hoping for a reversal of the ban have certainly been decrying the ruling by the oversight committee as alleged evidence of “anti-conservative bias”, but there’s a little more to it than that. The ruling of the oversight committee was really a non-ruling. Yes, they upheld the initial ban following the Jan 6 events as justified, but the real decision they were supposed to make was about extending the ban indefinitely. And on that question they copped out, and punted the decision back to Facebook, which had been hoping to avoid having to make one. Facebook now has to make a decision within six months, and if they decide to continue the ban, it has to be in clear conformance with a uniformly enforced set of rules. Meanwhile, Trump’s homemade online platform continues to be a source of unintended humour. It’s not like these clowns are capable of attracting any sort of decent creative or technical talent. ---

My inbox brought me news from _The Borowitz Report_ or _The Onion_ that Mr. Trump had started up _Facebook Total Landscaping_ to get his message out, with the help of Rudi Giuliani. ---

From the OP: > [@cytop](#): > > “Over the past four years, Donald J. Trump’s administration delivered for Americans of all backgrounds like never before.” Can’t argue with that. Half a million+ dead from a pandemic, record deficit, domestic terrorists storm the halls of Congress, more lies than any president in history… he delivered, and how!
