Donald Trump has made his return to social media with a post on Twitter rival Truth Social.
The former US President wrote: "I'M BACK! #COVFEFE" in a self-deprecating gag about one of his past tweets.
Trump sent the message with a photo of himself looking at his phone on a croquet lawn outside of his Mar-a-Lago country club.
#COVEFE is a reference to a Trump misspelling in a 2017 tweet, where he criticised media commentary on his administration.
The former president wrote: "Despite the constant negative press covfefe".

“I wish him well, of course I do with his Truth Social platform.
