Donald J. Trump posted a video to Truth Social, the platform where he commands the largest audience and holds a direct financial stake as the company markets a new service selling early access to top accounts. The president holds the most followers on the platform at 12.9 million, according to theguardian.com. His media company recently unveiled a plan to charge Wall Street firms for high-speed access to those posts. The video lands amid mounting scrutiny of how the presidency and the platform intersect.
