Donald Trump launches new website

Former US President Donald Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump on Monday announced the launch of ‘the official website of the 45th President of the United States”. The website is meant to allow supporters to request their participation in events, submit letters and ask for personalised greetings, The Hill reported.

According to a brief statement from Trump’s office, the former first couple is “continually strengthened by the enduring spirit of the American people” and looks forward to staying in touch. The website, called 45office.com, contains a page summarising Trumps’ time in the White House as well as another page where supporters can submit comments to the former president. It also includes more than a dozen pictures of himself and of first lady and makes no mention of his two impeachment trials. ​This comes after Trump was banned from social media platforms Twitter and Facebook following the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6 this year. Trump established his official post-presidency office in Florida earlier this year, but he has been largely silent about future plans amid swirling speculation that he may run for office again in 2024.

Visitors to the former president’s website can also request a personalized greeting from the president and the First Lady, or request that the Trumps attend an event. Due to the high number of requests, the greetings page says it will take up to six weeks for processing.
