Trump ends blog after 29 days, infuriated by measly readership
Upset that it was being mocked for low traffic, Trump ordered his team Tuesday to put the blog out of its misery

Former president Donald Trumps blog, celebrated by advisers as a beacon of freedom that would keep him relevant in an online world he once dominated, is dead. It was 29 days old.
Upset by reports from The Washington Post and other outlets highlighting its measly readership and concerns that it could detract from a social media platform he wants to launch later this year, Trump ordered his team Tuesday to put the blog out of its misery, advisers said.
On its last day, the site received just 1,500 shares or comments on Facebook and Twitter a staggering drop for someone whose every tweet once garnered hundreds of thousands of reactions.
Coincidentally, one of his last addresses to his followers was entitled "Trump, the View from the Outside".
Edit: I spoke of the devil, and now he's back.

Kevin Rudd looks like a character out of the tv cartoon south park. Every time you see him on tv poking his nose in the overwhelming urge to bitch slap him takes hold.

If only we could persuade Kevin Rudd to take a similar low profile.
Strange how yesterday's men seem to have a burning desire to remain in the limelight.
I'm surprised Kevin hasn't migrated to China, perhaps he's too valuable to the CCP here in Oz.
It looks like the desk of Tony Abbott is no more:
