Trump shares a brief video on Truth Social
Trump shared a post containing two videos with a short audio transcript on his social media platform.
WASHINGTON D.C. — Donald J. Trump shared a video on Truth Social featuring a brief audio exchange.
Here is the full post on truthsocial: “Truth Social post containing 2 videos. Video transcript No, he just done what you asked him.” on October 2, 2026 at 2:38 PM ET.
This is Trump’s 6th message released today, and the last post was 4 hours ago, and it is not part of a thread. On average, Trump produces 17 posts per day since his inauguration on January 20, 2025. The move fits a broader pattern in Trump’s recent messaging, with 89 of his 265 posts over the last 30 days classified as Image Only Posts.
The social media platform has recently faced external scrutiny, as former federal prosecutors say a scheme by the Trump media company to sell early access to Truth Social posts is likely criminal cbsnews.

President Trump is the author of Trump: The Art of the Deal, Trump: Think Like a Billionaire: Everything You Need to Know About Success, Real Estate, and Life, and Think Big: Make It Happen in Business and Life. Analyst and Trump supporter Rod Martin points to The Art of the Deal, Trump's 1987 book, as an explanation of his deal-making philosophy: making big announcements, pivoting often in public statements and, Martin says, ultimately getting what he wanted all along. Critics contend that Trump's books were published decades ago or were aimed at making money, not shedding light. "Generally," Martin said, "critics don't read The Art of the Deal. If they did, they would understand."
