Donald Trumps company behind his Truth Social platform features diversity and inclusion policies, while the former president vows to eliminate them across the land if re-elected.

Trump, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, has criticized DEI policies as un-American for years. But the language in the Trump Media & Technology Group was adopted on March 25, 2024, according to company documents on its website. That was the day before the company went public following a merger with a shell company. Its stock has plummeted repeatedly in the weeks since.

The anti-Trump group MeidasTouch reported its DEI discovery on Tuesday while highlighting Trumps numerous attacks on such initiatives.

Under Trump Medias Corporate Governance Guidelines, a section headlined in bold Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion displays terminology you wont find the criminally indicted candidate using on the campaign trail.

The Board is committed to creating and maintaining a culture of diversity and inclusion, the document reads. The Company will be better able to grow and improve with a diverse Board, management, and team of employees. Such commitment is and will be a factor in identifying and nominating director candidates.

The pledge encourages management to embrace the unique contributions an employee or candidate can bring to the Company and its culture in terms of their education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, nationality, color, religion, veterans status, disability and other life experience.
