With Twitter taken away from him, former President Donald Trump has been largely out of the spotlight and unable to drive news narratives the way he did when he was president and on social media.
But Trump continues to have great influence with Republican elected leaders because of his continued popularity with the GOP base.
And he's ramping up the messages he's sending for all to see on the blog-like portion of his post-presidency website. What's he focused on? Relitigating his election loss.
An analysis of Trump's posts on the site shows that his entries have spiked so far this month and that overall a plurality of the statements have mentioned his 2020 election loss or baseless claims of fraud or have cited efforts at relitigating the results.
One focus for the former president has been the controversial election review that continues in Arizona. And the messages come as that state and other Republican-led states, like Georgia, have enacted new voting restrictions.

Because his cult is still gullible enough to believe him, and they've already exercised violence for him in the past...

Non-sense comment. He was exonerated (three times). And by the way he was exonerated for inciting violence and that was the same reason why he was permanently banned on social media. How come now that he was found innocent for that he hasn’t been reinstated? The big mainstream and social media collusion. They couldn’t stand his achievements and historical milestones. Now look where we are…heading to become the first modern third world country.

There nothing as extremists than Demonrats. How come you don’t look at Antifa and the new KKK (BLM)? At least we didn’t burn DC like they did. And by the way, we didn’t carry guns when we infiltrated and a real Patriot and Veteran died merciless and no one speaks about it. However, a Capitol police officer dies for natural causes after the event and the Demonrats lower the flag for him. Be awake, is better than being woke. Just my humble and respectful opinion.

Demonrats love this kid in the picture but Veterans, Service Members and Patriots despise him. Who’s side are you SFC? I take my Patriot President Trump anytime. SFC Michael Hasbun

What matters is that Americans actually follow this wanna be dictator. I find it totally disgusting that what should be thinking americans fall for his constant lies.

I guess you are talking about senile Joe and Kamala they one who was appointed to resolve the border crisis 64 days ago and still haven’t visit. They are destroying our country while filling their pockets with Cartel money. The sad thing is that trafficking-with-persons is rampant and most of these are sex slaves. Get outside the box and think: how come we were energy independent four months ago and now we don’t even have fuel? The world is unstable now, China, Palestine, North Korea and all their shenanigans while President Trump had everything under control. We have a puppet for President now, the poor guy cannot even open his mouth unless he is using a teleprompter. He didn’t even know how much damage he was doing on day one when Pelosi and friends put all those EOs in front of him. Again, look outside the box and you will see much better.

Wow, what an indecent way to refer to a brother-in-arms, extremely unprofessional and the same tactics used by the Left when they have no rebuttal. I’ll leave you with this one son so you can learn a little bit about good ethics and the values that you obviously never learned in the military. “The strength of your grievance shows the weakness of your argument”.
