Active users of President Donald Trump’s social media platform have dropped like flies.

Trump’s Truth Social site, where he threatens other countries and posts self-aggrandizing AI slop, has experienced a dramatic drop in daily active users of its mobile app since last July, according to the Financial Times.

The outlet, citing estimates from the digital market intelligence company SimilarWeb, reported that the mobile site’s daily active users have plummeted from 436,000 in July 2025 to only 261,000 one year later.

Even for the people he's picking a fight with.

Europe's policy for Trump and tariff threats is to wait and send a few grey suited bureaucrats to discuss paperwork. They engage with the Greenland threat by arming themselves with home built weapons.

Iran has learned it's mostly bark and low stamina so they do what they want now.

Hopefully the EU keeps doing exactly this: stay calm, send the grey suits to discuss tariffs, quietly build its own weapons and refuse to turn every Trump threat into a five alarm crisis.

It helped when Congress struck down Trump's tariffs. It learned EU to wait him out.
