While the Trump organization and the company’s CFO Allen Weisselberg are being criminally charged with a “sweeping and audacious” tax fraud, former President Donald Trump and his team are launching a new social media platform called GETTR, which many on social media are calling GET HER, in reference the 25 sexual assault allegations by women against Trump.
This new venture is headed by Trump’s former spokesman, Jason Miller, who has often made news over his lack of child support payments, notes POLITICO:
Trump’s involvement with the project is unclear as is whether or not he will set up an account on GETTR and use it... The former president has been looking for alternative ways to engage with his base online after having been booted off Twitter and suspended from Facebook.
And his prior effort to engage online—through the launch of a professional blog—ended quickly amid widespread ridicule and poor readership. This new venture may also raise questions about privacy, including whether it harvests information about its users’ Twitter followers.
