The blog that former president Donald Trump launched last month after he was banned from Twitter and Facebook is no more.
Jason Miller, a spokesman for Trump, said that “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump” has been permanently shut down after all posts were scrubbed from Trump’s website.
Trump rolled out the blog last month after being absent from social media since January, but his effort to regain some of the attention he received with his headline-grabbing tweets largely failed. An adviser told The Washington Post’s Josh Dawsey that the former president wanted to open a new “platform” and didn’t like that this platform was being mocked and had so few readers.
And the way to fix that is definitely to start over on a new “platform,” and not at all to become a different less stupid more interesting not quite so ridiculous person. Starting over on a new “platform” will fix everything. Readers will be in the high two figures.
How many of Trump’s supporters can access his Twitter account and chew gum at the same time? The answer should be in the dozens; hundreds even.

Oh that’s a shame. I was one of the two readers.
Who isn’t tired of Donnie’s chopsing, show of hands? :P
I was informed at another blog (Debunking Christianity) that sarcasm is WICKED. He would have a stroke if he ever came here!
(I was not very nice in return. I pointed out that responding to a troll questioning who the victims of the Tulsa Massacre “really were” with an earnest discussion of scientific methods to assess race of long dead people was not only useless (in the contect of trolls) but rather sad.
Rumours of his forthcoming e-book have been leaked; Letters to a Young Dipshit. Coming soon to an obscure website near you! :P
All the news stories say the posts were scrubbed from the site, but they were just moved to the news section:

Somewhat comically this just makes them harder to read, since you have to click to see each one. So the same as before, but worse. And no new ones for 2 days, so that must be when he had his temper tantrum and quit.
Anyway, here’s hoping his new new platform flops just as badly.
It’s a little disappointing, in a way. I’d hoped that the death spiral would be way more agonising.
Don’t worry, though. It’s an absolute 100% certainty that the ‘platform’ will turn out to have been funded illegally in some way, so we’ll get to enjoy it a bit more yet.
