Former President Donald Trump’s Truth Social received a major boost Thursday evening as a surge of users flooded the platform to watch him respond in real-time to President Joe Biden’s angry, divisive State of the Union Address.

The platform was so overwhelmed that, at times, users experienced intermittent delays trying to access it, Just the News reported.

“Trump uses his platform exclusively for his social commentary, making Truth Social the only social media site that hosts content from both Trump and Biden. Biden’s campaign recently opened up an account on Truth,” the outlet noted. “Trump essentially live-blogged his responses to Biden’s speech on the platform, starting with an opening salvo on Biden starting his speech late.”

Here are some of Trump’s responses:

“That may be the Angriest, Least Compassionate, and Worst State of the Union Speech ever made. It was an Embarrassment to our Country!”

“He’s done nothing for Israel compared to what I have done. It’s only words he speaks, not TRUTH!”

“He made Iran RICH. This is why we have the problems in the Middle East. With me, Iran was BROKE. He is the reason that the Middle East is blowing up!”

“Biden’s speech last night is getting ‘panned’ all over the World. Only the Radical Left lunatics are trying to make the best of it. It took him 41 minutes to talk, briefly, about Immigration and the Border, on the topic of which he was very weak. No talk of weaponization against his very calm and nice opponent. Angry as hell, this guy is a PSYCHO!”

“The Fake News Media is taking Crooked Joe Biden’s anger, and calling it ‘fiery.’ That’s why they’re the Fake News, and there’s nobody like them!”

“The Story is that he got through it, he’s still breathing, and they didn’t have to carry him out in a straitjacket. Other than that, he did not do a very good job!”

Trump also praised freshman Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama, who gave the official Republican response:

Katie Britt was a GREAT contrast to an Angry, and obviously very Disturbed, “President.” She was compassionate and caring, especially concerning Women and Women’s Issues. Her conversation on Migrant Crime was powerful and insightful. Great job Katie!

“Like so many families across America, my family and I just watched President Biden’s State of the Union Address from our living room, and what we saw was a performance from a permanent politician who has actually been in office longer than I’ve been alive,” the 42-year-old Britt noted in a video that was shot in her kitchen. “One thing was clear, though: Biden just doesn’t get it. He’s out of touch.”

Britt began by whacking Biden over his lax immigration and border enforcement policies, noting that at least 11 million people have either crossed illegally or have been allowed to stay in the country pending asylum claims that Republicans argue, by law, should have been made in other countries before reading the U.S.

“President Biden inherited the most secure border of all time, but minutes after taking office he suspended all deportations, he halted construction of the border wall, and he announced a plan to give amnesty to millions,” she said. “We know that President Biden didn’t just create this border crisis. He invited it with 94 executive actions in his first 100 days.”

Trump also posted a video response to Biden’s address:

At one point during his address, Biden astoundingly called Trump and Republicans the biggest threats to democracy since the Civil War, a comment that drew the most emotional response from the former president.

“JOE BIDEN IS A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!” Trump wrote. “HE WEAPONIZED GOVERNMENT AGAINST HIS OPPONENT – DIDN’T TALK ABOUT THAT, NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!”

Trump also lambasted Biden over his border policies.

“There is nothing he can say tonight that can absolve him from letting 15 million people into our Country illegally,” Trump wrote. “He’ll probably blame me, but I had the Safest Border in the History of our Country, so that won’t go very far!”
