Please don’t elect Temu Trump (Pierre Poilievre) or Trump’s useful idiot Doug Ford.

    No, it’s not. Because it’s not a tweet at all. Trump posted that on his own little unfederated modified Mastodon instance he calls Truth Social (seriously, it’s built on Mastodon). Note the red check instead of blue and them being called “retruths” because he calls posts on his instance “truths.”

    It’s an important distinction if ever you need to find the original source for any reason.

      Thanks! I was already aware of that, but others might not be.

      I used tweet in the generic sense because like hell I would ever say “Holy crap, that’s a real truth!”
