This thread is to talk about the social media and traditional media outlet implications of 2024. Will Trump start Trump TV to compensate being deplatformed? Will his followers just spam the places he's excluded from?

Trump TV would collapse immediately. Within weeks it will be hit by billions of dollars worth of defamation lawsuits.

It'll be a bit harder for him, but still extremely easy.

Then he'll realize why the news media isn't pulling "fake news" out of their butts against them.

Trump doesn't like talking in public that's why after his defeat he held no press conferences that's why Rs are gonna do badly in midterm, Trump doesn't speak very well behind podium.

Knowing Trump, he will try to get as much Free Media as possible due to news networks needing him for higher ratings. However, without Twitter, Trump's impact is impeded.

Trump being banned from Twitter takes away most of his power. I don't think it's hyperbolic to say that Trump's twitter ban will end up being one of the most important political developments of the early 2020s.

Trump at that point will probably be on another platform that the media may be forced to cover, even if he doesn't run in 2024.

Negligible.

It might’ve made a difference in the 2016 primaries because Twitter arguably helped to boost him.  Now, his name alone will boost him above all other candidates (should anyone even run against him).

A social media platform that will emerge that isn't controlled by either Apple or Google! The market, even the social media one, continues to evolve! If say Parler finds itself a platform independent of either Apple & Google, then Twitter might be confronted by existential considerations! I could see a war between Parler on one side & Twitter with Google & Apple on the other!  The kraken is angry & full of vengeance & there is nothing that can be done to appease him or his followers! At least on twitter his presence was controlled by conditions dictated by what Twitter determined. On Parler without any inhibitors, his voice & his rhetoric will be uninhibited! Then he's the proverbial stone in the shoe!
