You and Matt both liked each other.” To the right, a red hot air balloon with a couple inside floats through a pink sky, leaving a trail of heart icons behind it.

APR 25, 2024 — A couple just tied the knot after meeting on The Right Stuff, marking the first official marriage from the controversial conservative dating app backed by Peter Thiel and launched by former Trump aide John McEntee. What began as a niche experiment for MAGA singles has snowballed into a viral brand with millions of followers and a growing cultural footprint. With McEntee at the helm—part tech founder, part TikTok satirist—the app aims to become more than just a place to swipe. His bet? That politics is the new religion—and the Right is finally cool.
