TruthSocial.com Posts Listings Scraper: Extract Social Media Data for Political & Brand Analysis

Introduction

Truth Social is a social networking platform that has gained significant attention as an alternative social media space, particularly among conservative audiences and political figures. The platform hosts millions of posts from verified accounts, political figures, influencers, and everyday users discussing current events, politics, business, and culture.

For researchers, political analysts, brand managers, and data scientists, accessing structured post data from Truth Social is valuable for understanding public discourse, tracking narrative trends, monitoring brand mentions, and analyzing political messaging. However, manually collecting posts from user profiles is inefficient when analyzing posting patterns, engagement trends, or conducting sentiment analysis across thousands of posts.

The TruthSocial.com Posts Listings Scraper automates this process, enabling systematic collection of post data including content, timestamps, engagement metrics, replies, and media attachments from any public profile.

Scraper Overview

The TruthSocial.com Posts Listings Scraper is designed to extract comprehensive post data from user profiles on Truth Social. It captures post content, engagement metrics (replies, reposts, favorites), conversation threads, media attachments, and temporal data.

Key advantages include username-based extraction, pagination support via post ID tracking, and configurable extraction limits. It's valuable for political campaign analysts tracking messaging strategies, researchers studying social media discourse, brand managers monitoring mentions and sentiment, competitive intelligence teams analyzing influencer content, and data scientists building social media datasets.

The scraper extracts rich metadata including post visibility settings, language detection, content warnings, quoted posts, reply chains, poll data, and edit history—providing complete context for each post beyond just the text content.

Input and Output Details

Input Format

{
  "username": "realDonaldTrump",
  "last_post_id": "",
  "max_items_per_url": 20
}

The username parameter: Enter the username of the Truth Social profile to scrape. This should be the exact username as it appears in the profile URL (e.g., "realDonaldTrump" for truth social.com/@realDonaldTrump). Required field that determines which user's posts will be extracted.

The last_post_id parameter: Enter the last post ID to start scraping from. Leave empty to start from the most recent posts. Use this for pagination—after scraping the first batch, use the ID of the last post to continue from that point, enabling systematic collection of historical posts without duplication.

The max_items_per_url parameter: Limit the number of posts to scrape per execution. Default is 20. Adjust based on your needs—use smaller values for recent monitoring, larger values for comprehensive historical collection.

Setting Up Profile Scraping

Step 1: Identify Target Username

Navigate to Truth Social and locate the profile you want to scrape. Copy the exact username from the URL (e.g., @realDonaldTrump → use "realDonaldTrump").
