Because major advertisers are avoiding Donald Trump’s Truth Social, users are instead being exposed to a flood of ads from what the New York Times characterizes as “miracle cures, scams and fake merchandise,” as the platform is forced to take what it can in an effort to survive.

That, in turn, has led to complaints aimed at the former president in his comment sections for allowing the forum to turn into a cesspool of ads from scam artists.

As the Times is reporting, Truth Social is almost devoid of ads from large corporations for a multitude of reasons that include the toxic rhetoric on the site, its small reach due to few users and the fact that the predominant demographic is not one that advertisers are trying to reach.
