Trump's 'New Platform' Withers Away After 29 days

 

It was inevitable. Trump actually canceled himself.

Trump's aide, Jason Miller confirmed this morning that the former president's "communication platform" (or blog as the rest of the world called it) has been shuttered after 29 days.

Like most enterprises in Trump's life it failed, adding another notch in his loser's column. No one was reading it. Trump's imprint on cyberspace has shrunk dramatically (91 percent according to the latest poll) since he was banned at Facebook and Twitter. 

Hence the plan to go back to his signature rallies this month. The great carnival barker has been forced to take his act on the rode again.

Meanwhile Twitter is busy mocking Trump today. My favorite twitter teaser was written by Dr. Siva Vaidhyanathan:

"Please help me make a list of things that outlasted Trump's blog.

* My goldfish, Steve, when I was seven

*Whatever show Tony Danza last starred in.

*This feeling of dread.

I'd like to add to this tread by saying good riddance!
