Trump’s Fans Ditch Truth Social in Stunning Exodus

Alex Wong / Getty Images Donald Trump’s Truth Social is hemorrhaging users, with daily traffic plunging more than 30 percent in a year despite the president’s relentless stream of posts.

The social media platform averaged roughly 260,000 daily users last month, a steep drop from its peak of 420,000 in June 2025, according to data from digital intelligence firm Similarweb.

The decline leaves Truth Social trailing far behind established competitors.

Facebook attracts more than 2 billion daily active users, while Elon Musk’s X, formerly Twitter, draws upwards of 130 million daily users worldwide, according to Backlinko .

Twitter was the model for Trump’s own platform.

The Daily Beast has contacted Trump Media & Technology Group, the company behind Truth Social, for comment.

Trump launched his media venture after Twitter permanently banned him on Jan.

8, 2021, in the aftermath of the Jan.

6 attack on the U.S.

Capitol.

He established Trump Media & Technology Group the following month, with Truth Social debuting in February 2022.

The president remains the platform’s dominant personality, publishing multiple posts a day.

This week, Trump used Truth Social to promote an investment in semiconductors, circulate favorable coverage of himself, and share an AI-generated video featuring a bizarre confrontation with a tiger.

The video followed the death of a mentally ill British man, 23-year-old William Chapman, who was mauled by a tiger at Yorkshire Wildlife Park in the U.K.
