Since January 8, when Twitter suspended Former President Donald Trump's Twitter account, an eerie silence has fallen on at least that corner of the social media site.

Trump's characteristic bullying, all caps tirades, and disinformation blurbs have become a thing of the past in the last couple of weeks since the banning.


Joe Biden began his presidency, the House of Representatives voted to impeach Trump and the former President's trial in the Senate is just around the corner. One can't help but imagine Donald Trump in some room, vibrating with rage and no recourse to type it to the masses.

But old habits die hard.

According to Daily Beast, Trump has been jotting down his "insults and observations" in the hopes he can convince other influential voices to Tweet on his behalf.

These days, Trump's arch nemesis is Republican Representative Liz Cheney, of Wyoming. During the House Floor debate regarding whether or not to impeach Trump for his role in inciting the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6, Cheney openly criticized Trump, who was still President at the time.

Cheney said:

"The President of the United States summoned this mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack. Everything that followed was his doing. None of this would have happened without the President."
"The President could have immediately and forcefully intervened to stop the violence. He did not. There has never been a greater betrayal by a President of the United States of his office and his oath to the Constitution."

Not surprisingly, Cheney's stance put her in Trump's cross-hairs.

According to Daily Beast's reporting, Trump claimed Cheney is "totally phony" and "has no friends," an echo of his characteristic and childish insult style that the world became familiar with if they've read even a couple of Trump's tweets over the last four years.

Alas, you can take the man out of the Twitter, but you can't take the Twitter out of the man.

As for Twitter, many people seem thrilled by Trump's absence.




Time will tell if Trump finds some new way to get his voice heard—outside the echo chamber of sites like Parler—and take all that golden silence away.

Newsmax Host Epically Blasted For His Hypocrisy After Defending Trump's Profane Easter Tweet

Newsmax host Greg Kelly defended President Donald Trump's use of profanity in his Easter morning threat to Iran, prompting critics to resurface one of his own past tweets calling for a ban on use of the f-word.

Trump lashed out at Iran amid growing concerns about tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow passage at the entrance to the Persian Gulf that carries roughly 20% of the world’s oil supply. Recently, Iran has struck several vessels in the area and warned ships against entering the passage, effectively halting traffic through one of the world’s most crucial energy routes.

MAGA Politicians Called Out After Falling For AI-Generated Photo Of U.S. Airmen Rescue In Iran

At least two Republican politicians are facing criticism after they fell for a clearly A.I.-generated photo of the rescue of two U.S. airmen whose fighter jet went down in Iran over the weekend.

U.S. special forces rescued the second crew member of an F-15 fighter jet shot down over Iran, according to three U.S. officials cited by Axios. The crew member, a weapons systems officer, was wounded after ejecting from the aircraft Friday but was able to walk and evaded capture in the mountains for more than a day.
