Just weeks after its launch, the pro-Trump social network GETTR is inundated with terrorist propaganda spread by supporters of Islamic State, according to a POLITICO review of online activity on the fledgling platform.
The social network started a month ago by members of former President Donald Trumps inner circle features reams of jihadi-related material, including graphic videos of beheadings, viral memes that promote violence against the West and even memes of a militant executing Trump in an orange jumpsuit similar to those used in Guantanamo Bay.

Note that they arent trolling liberal sites. Just like they struck the World Trade Center and Pentagon on 9/11 (and not, say, the Washington Monument or the Statue of Liberty) they understand what parts/population of the US is the biggest threat to them.

From what I read, they are fully trying to take over content posting on that site. Could not happen to better people.

It is going to be fun watching what the Trumpers do.

He promised he would, never did tell us how, yet achieved what so-called "experts" and "generals" couldn't. Any reports to the contrary must be fake news. And any day now, that pillow salesman will get Trump re-instated as Fuhre--President, I meant President.
