Trump Scraps Blog One Month After Rollout
Former President Donald Trump has scrapped his blog, “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump,” less than 30 days after launching it, according to CNBC.
In a Wednesday statement, spokesman Jason Miller said that the page “will not be returning,” and that “It was just auxiliary to the broader efforts we have and are working on.”
“Hoping to have more information on the broader efforts soon, but I do not have a precise awareness of timing,” Miller added via email.
Facebook and Twitter both banned Trump from posting on their platforms after Jan. 6, when a mob of the then-president’s supporters violently invaded the U.S. Capitol, forcing a joint session of Congress into hiding.
