A new disclosure has been made about the ‘Trump Media and Technology Group’ (TMTG) and social media app ‘Truth Social’ that former US President Donald Trump has announced to start.
Industrialist Patrick Orlando, who invested in this venture, is associated with a company that is headquartered in Wuhan, China.
On the other hand, Trump’s announcement of acquisition of Orlando-based company Digital World Acquisition Corp on Thursday saw its shares jump 350 per cent. TMTG will operate after the merger with Orlando’s Digital World Acquisition Corp.
