Why does the news media keep focusing on Truth Social? [View all]

So what? Let it die.

Let's focus on the excellent economic news, the political gains made by the Democrats, and the fact that there are a whole lot of Americans who don't give a flip about an orange headed buffoon in an aging, seaside resort on the Florida coast who's going to prison for multiple crimes he committed.

Sheesh. Enough already. Who cares? It's pig slop for idiots. Nothing he does matters.
