Social media users often make up posts to satirize the president's real posts and views.

Fake Truth Social posts have circulated online since U.S. President Donald Trump launched his social media platform in 2022.

Since then, Trump has frequently shared his thoughts and policy proposals on Truth Social; among his many posts, he has announced a pause on tariffs, falsely claimed the United States gave $350 billion to Ukraine and sent a Christmas message that ended with the words, "MAY THEY ROT IN HELL." 

But Trump's social media habit has also led to numerous satirical Truth Social posts and otherwise fake screenshots spreading online — and Truth Social's spotty search engine sometimes makes it difficult to figure out whether a post is fake. (To determine what Trump is saying on the platform, Snopes uses Trump's Truth, a website that makes it easier to find Trump's Truth Social posts — including deleted ones.) 

Here's a sampling of fake Truth Social posts attributed to Trump:
