Former President Donald Trump has launched his new social media platform TRUTH Social after being banned from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook following the Jan. 6th riots at the Capitol.
However, there were some issues on the first date that people could register, which is why it was on the receiving end of jokes from the late-night circuit.
Seth Meyers poked fun during a monologue on “Late Night with Seth Myers” at some users who tried to sign up for Trump’s social media platform and were met with a red error label that read, “Something went wrong. Please try again.”
“Though by the time you find yourself signing up for a Donald Trump social media site, something already went wrong,” Meyers joked. “But I’m guessing they’ll try again. If you were first in line to sign up for Truth Social, you’ve probably got some free time on your hands.”
Meyers also highlighted how obscure the error message is on Trump’s platform, stating that users aren’t even told what the issue is.
“Usually, you get an error code or something, but Trump’s site just gives you a shrug emoji that says, ‘What were you expecting? This thing’s a clusterf–k,’” Meyers cracked.
Finally, the late-night host went after Devin Nunes, the CEO of Trump Media & Technology Group, and played a clip of Nunes saying that he expects TRUTH Social to be fully operational by the end of March.
“By the end of March?” Meyers questioned. “This is the digital age. Everything is measured in nanoseconds, and you’re moving at the speed of Civil War letters home.”
