Trump To Launch Own Platform As He Plans Social Media Comeback

  • Trump was banned from Twitter after continuously tweeting about unfounded election fraud claims and potentially inciteful

Former United States President, Donald Trump may be returning to social media soon but via his own platform, his senior adviser has told Fox News. 

During his presidency, Trump was known for his prolific tweeting, which critics often called “unpresidential” but his supporters and advisers said allowed him to speak directly to the American people, bypassing mainstream media “spin.”

Trump senior adviser Jason Miller told Fox News on Sunday the 45th president would likely be back on social media in the next two to three months with his own platform, a development that Miller said would potentially “redefine the game.”

Trump told Ingraham that, as opposed to tweeting, official press releases have allowed him to not have to be so “careful with every word.”

“If I put a comma in the wrong place, it becomes like ‘he doesn’t know proper English,'” he joked. “You have no idea.”

He said the press releases give him the ability to “steer” and “focus” a statement on what’s important to him.

Trump added that Twitter has become less interesting since his departure from the platform after the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6.

“A lot of people are leaving Twitter,” he added. “It’s become very, very boring and I’ve heard it from so many different people. So we’re off and a lot of other people are off and a lot of people are just leaving. It’s become a very boring deal.”
