Donald Trump has cancelled his own blog, an advisor announced on Wednesday, highlighting the ex-president and election conspiracy theorist’s struggle to escape the social media wilderness. The blog “will not be returning,” Trump aide Jason Miller told CNBC. Named “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump,” the blog was launched only a month ago in response to decisions by Twitter and Facebook to ban the Republican for inciting rebellion against President Joe Biden’s election win. Now in place of his blog page, a form appears allowing sign-ups for alerts from the ex-president. Miller told CNBC that the blog had been “just auxiliary” to broader efforts at rebuilding Trump’s social media presence, though he said he did “not have a precise awareness of timing” on those plans.
