Writing in a book

Heeheehee Trump has a blog. I bet mine is better.

His retro webpage, billed “From the Desk of Donald J Trump”, appears at DonaldJTrump.com/desk and features a small photo of the 45th president writing in a book on his desk.

Which is funny because he barely knows how to write.

Twitter announced it had banned Trump permanently after the US Capitol attack for breaking its “glorification of violence” rules.

Facebook also banned him, with its chief executive, Mark Zuckerberg, saying “the risks of allowing the President to continue to use our service during this period are simply too great”.

But Facebook’s independent oversight board is expected to announce on Wednesday whether it is overturning the suspension.

In the meantime Trump, exiled at his private Mar-a-Lago residence and club in Palm Beach after leaving office in defeat and disgrace, has been sending press releases to journalists.

They are often in a style reminiscent of his tweets, with capital letters, exclamation marks and misspellings. But they no longer drive the day’s agenda or cable news chyrons as his presidential missives once did.

Isn’t it peaceful?

    I’ll bet that none of his old pals like Kim or Putin are taking his calls either. There’s nobody important who sees him as important any more. I bet it’s driving him nuts.

    Good.

    Still looking forward to all the Trump perp walks.

    I bet mine is better.

    I’d bet a year’s salary on that.

    Just to prove how needy he is, you can like his posts, but once you’ve liked it, you can’t unlike it!

    For all that, how do we know that it is the real Donald J Trump, and not someone else dressed up in a clown I mean Donald J Trump suit? And how do we know Trump’s blog is not a fake, stuffed full of fake news?

    …you can like his posts, but once you’ve liked it, you can’t unlike it!.

    Don’t you ever get a chance to change your mind? Does that mean that once locked in there, you are stuck in there for life? Is there room service? These are important, vital questions.

    Does he think you produce content for a blog by hand-writing in a book?

    “I bet mine is better.”

    I’ve always railed against people who judge before reading, but you’re absolutely right.

    Not only can’t you unlike a post but it adds a new like each week.

    Francis Boyle, good one!

    Of course he has to write his posts in a book. Melania has confiscated his phone, and they pay someone else to try to make his ramblings into a coherent enough collection of words to go onto the blog.

    But then everyone will know it’s not Trump. Sad!

    His blog may as well be called “Please Keep Talking About Me”.

    Talk about setting a low bar. I mean, I’d bet mine is better as well, and I’ve never even had a blog.

    Indeed, that was my point. I bet mine is better and I bet pretty much EVERYONE’S is better. Trump is not a genius with the words.

    But but but Trump IS a genius. He said so himself in his capacity as POTUS, and with all the authority bestowed by the Constitution and the Founding Fathers on that high office.. That counts for one helluva lot, surely. I’d say it makes Trump pretty well as infallible as that geezer in the Vatican who dresses up in those funny clothes. And HE IS infallible. It says so in the Bible.

    I betcha if Trump had a go at reading his Little Golden Bible more often, instead of just colouring it in, he would find all the support he could wish for.
