Facebook's supervisory board confirmed on Wednesday the temporary ban on former US President Donald Trump from his social networks.

While waiting to return one day to these platforms, Donald Trump launched a new site this week to allow his supporters to follow his news.

Donald Trump will not be back on Facebook, at least not immediately.

The supervisory board of the Californian group, which notably owns the social networks Facebook and Instagram, confirmed on Wednesday the ban on the former US president, suspended for his comments during the riots on the Capitol in Washington on January 6.

The former tenant of the White House "created an environment where a serious risk of violence was possible", justified the instance.

Therefore, it is difficult for Donald Trump to maintain a link with his supporters.

A new site called "From Donald Trump's office"

The former president therefore launched this week a platform for this purpose. He doesn't really have a choice. He is now banned from almost all social networks: permanently on Twitter - where he had 88 million subscribers - and temporarily on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, with a suspension that is therefore prolonged. A return of Donald Trump on these latest platforms is certainly possible - the supervisory board has asked Facebook to reconsider the case within six months - but Donald Trump is not waiting.

The ultraconservative network Gab has already archived its old tweets and allows Internet users to find them.

Named "From Donald Trump's office", the ex-president's new website therefore also and now brings together his press releases, which we can like or share.

However, it is impossible to comment on anything.

Donald Trump's advisers had announced a new social network: the site looks more like a simple blog.

Concern among Republicans

Donald Trump has not been furious about it since Facebook's decision. He denounces absolute shame and an attack on freedom of expression. His anger is shared by many Republicans in the United States. Some, worried, confide in the press. They find that Facebook is a great fundraising tool and that we will now have to look for other ways to find donors.
