The people behind “Dark Brandon” want to ensure that Donald Trump isn’t all alone in his Truth Social enclave.
President Biden’s re-election campaign confirmed Monday that it launched an account on the Trump-created and owned platform, where it aims to combat “mis- and disinformation.”
“There’s very little ‘truth’ happening on Truth Social, but at least now it’ll be a little fun,” a Biden campaign aide told The Post.
The new account, with the handle BidenHQ, fired off its first post around 1:35 p.m.: “Well. Let’s see how this goes. Converts welcome!”
The Biden campaign then proceeded to taunt and needle Trump by posting a flurry of clips, such as Fox News praising the incumbent and 2024 hopefuls like former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley ripping the 77-year-old former president.
“We just joined Truth Social, mostly because we thought it would be very funny,” the campaign confirmed on X.
Trump started Truth Social in October 2021 after he was banished from, Facebook, Instagram, and what was then known as Twitter following the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
The platform now serves as a stage for the 45th president to unleash digital tirades against his political and legal foes.
Trump has since been allowed back onto the platforms that barred him, but still favors Truth Social, whose user base is dominated by conservatives and is helmed by former Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.)
“Crooked Joe Biden and his team are finally acknowledging that Truth Social is hot as a pistol and the only place where real news happens,” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung told The Post.
“Unfortunately for Biden, his continuation of spreading misinformation to gaslight the American people in order to distract from his disastrous record won’t work and they’ll be ratioed to oblivion.”
Truth Social served as a temporary boon for Trump’s net worth, which has since slid off the Forbes 400 list amid a torrent of civil and criminal litigation against him.
Meanwhile, Biden’s campaign has been flush with cash as Republicans joust against one another for the 2024 nomination.
The Biden campaign, Democratic National Committee, and two joint fundraising committees hauled in over $71 million between July 1 and Sept. 30, financial filings show.
The Republican Nation Committee is not buttressing any candidate with all its resources until a nominee is selection.
Trump’s campaign pulled in $24.5 million, just below the $24.8 million Biden’s campaign amassed, per Federal Election Commission records.
Both Trump and Biden are the runaway favorites to win their respective party nominations and face off in a rematch of the 2020 vote.
They are also running neck and neck in polling, with Trump eking out a razor-thin 0.8 percentage point popular vote edge in the latest RealClearPolitics aggregate.
