New Poll Shows That Even Trump Supporters Aren’t Interested in his Pathetic New Website


There are basically no social media sites that are willing to let Donald Trump use their platform. So the former president had to take matters into his own hands and create his own platform.

The reviews of From the Desk of Donald J. Trump haven’t been great. Some are calling it a glorified blog. And according to a recent poll from Politico/Morning Consult, even his own supporters haven’t shown much interest in it.

The pollsters asked respondents, “As you may know, former President Trump has a new social media website, From the Desk of Donald J. Trump. How much do you expect to be engaging with this new website?”

Only 29% of those polled responded positively with 12% saying a lot and 17% saying some. 71% weren’t interested saying not at all or not much.

Those who identified as Trump supporters were more positive, but not in a major way. A whopping 46% of Trump die hards said they would not be checking out the site. Only 22% of supporters said they would be visiting the site on a regular basis.

A majority of voters also felt that Trump’s current Facebook ban should stay in place. In a different Morning Consult poll, a majority of respondents said that they agreed with the measure.

While the Republican party has acted like Trump is the future of the party, voters don’t seem to be so sure. The fact that his website landed with a thud is a pretty good indication that that the former president’s power is in significant decline.

1. So the GOP is not representing their own members!

[SergeStorms]

7. They're terrified of th big, stupid oaf....

at Mar-ma-lardo. A discouraging word from His Assholiness will jeopardize their phoney-balonie jobs, and none of those guys wants to work at a real job ever again. They should change the symbol that represents their party from an elephant to a chicken, and that's being extremely hard on chickens.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. Yep...but if he threatened all of them to primary them, or trash them, what choice do they

have?

1. Do the right thing and lose job?

2. Do the wrong thing and keep job?

They gotta go with #2 because they have already supported him throughout.

[SergeStorms]

17. Secretly...

I'd bet over half of them would like to see Trump drop dead, but they're such sniveling cowards they don't dare take a stand. If you don't take a stand for something, you'll fall for anything. And they have.

19. I don't know... Did you see Romney get totally booed off the stage?

I don't know who could combat that? Maybe not put yourself in a situation where that could happen?

Adam Kinzinger just on MSNBC. He was talking about how he outperformed trump in last election. Maybe that's the key to survival.

[SergeStorms]

20. He was booed off the stage...

in Utah at a meeting of Utah republicans. Those weren't U.S. Senators. Still, he's not one of the republican favorites, that's for sure. He won't lie nearly enough for their liking.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

21. Yes, Utah... Can't find a friendlier audience than that.

[SergeStorms]

22. All good Mormons, of course.

Sitting there in their magic underwear, ready to rip his head off. I hope Romney had his on. He probably soiled them. 😁

[Deminpenn]

2. Of course, they don't have to visit the site because

they all still watch Fox News which tells them the same things.

This poll is useful as a blow to Trump's ego that few of his supporters want to hear things directly from him.

[Diamond_Dog]

3. Maybe it's too much reading for them.

[dreamland]

6. Bingo!

Which is why they need Faux news.

[SergeStorms]

8. No real Trump supporter....

would be caught dead watching FOX now. They're just too darned liberal. It's OAN, Newsmax, or nothing.

[mucifer]

4. as long as they all believe the big lie it doesn't matter. It might if they didn't control so many

state governments. But, they do.

[ariadne0614]

5. One might wonder what percentage of his FB and Twitter followers were Russian bots. n/t

[SergeStorms]

9. About the same percentage...

as Trump's visitors to the White House, or contributors to his pResidential campaign. 70-90 %.

[Harker]

10. Or liberals waiting to add punchlines. n/t

[Hortensis]

11. Good. But so far Trump's blog does not ALLOW interaction there.

I read before that trumpists can come and copy the tidy little blocks of toxic text to post them to platforms he's banned from, but that's not exactly up there with being able to post their own excited agreement with their leader's lies and smears.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a real indicator anyway. Hope, hope! Could really be that Republicans in office are the most committed to keeping Trump afloat -- as the life raft they're left with after kicking out the bottom of their own boat.

12. ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️

[Maru Kitteh]

18. I'd venture about 68% of them can't copy and paste anyway.

[uponit7771]

13. That 12% is a ***LOT*** of GQP voters that will go away if Putin's Whore goes to jail or is ...

... diminished by the GQP steadies

[calimary]

14. Maybe they just don't like to read? Too much hard work maybe?

After all, weren’t they hanging on every tweet as though their lives depended on it?

Maybe they simply don’t have the bandwidth for anything more than 280 characters.

Fans can't comment and drool all over him, so they aren't that interested.
