Truth Social, former President Donald Trump’s new social media platform, quickly topped free downloads on the Apple App Store after its soft launch in February. Since then, hundreds of thousands of potential users have been stuck on a waitlist and Trump has been asking associates: “What the f*** is going on?”

A pair of sources familiar with the platform’s launch told The Daily Beast that Trump – who essentially announced another White House run in recent speeches, including on Saturday – has publicly shrugged off a shoddy rollout while privately cursing and questioning why the app isn’t more popular.
