“From the Desk of Donald J. Trump” is exactly what it sounds like — a place where journalists, supporters, and opponents can receive musings from the 45th president following his banishment from social media platforms after the Capitol riot.

Still, just one week after its launch, what many call the former president’s “new communications platform” remains a glorified blog despite promises from senior Trump adviser Jason Miller in early May that his boss’s office would soon release additional information on the new social media platform they are developing. So far, however, nothing has been announced. Facebook, for now at least, will not restore the former commander in chief’s account. He is relying on statements and a rudimentary website to communicate. He remains the most influential national Republican, but strategists wonder if he can remain a force long-term without a social media presence.
