Kayleigh McEnany said former President Donald Trump is doing “just fine without social media.”
The former White House press secretary told Stuart Varney that Trump feels it is “kind of freeing not to have Twitter.”
“I spoke to him this week,” McEnany, a Fox News contributor, said Friday on Fox Business. “I spoke to him, certainly in the wake of the Twitter ban, and he said it was kind of freeing not to have Twitter. He had a lot of time on his hands. So, I think he’s doing just fine without social media.”

Trump has lost access to his accounts on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube in response to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
“We will lift the suspension of the Donald Trump channel when we determine that the risk of violence has decreased,” YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki said Thursday at a virtual event hosted by the Atlantic Council.
“She says this is about stopping violence, but this is about stopping Trump,” McEnany said in response to Wojcicki’s remark.

Twitter said Trump’s ban from the platform is permanent, but Facebook has yet to make a similar choice. Since the ban, Trump has made a few statements via press release in which he has criticized fellow Republicans.
