Trump sets up 'Office of Former President' for future public appearance

Former US President Donald Trump on Monday set up an official post-presidency office in Palm Beach County for future public appearances and statements.

"The Office of the Former President" will manage Trump's correspondence, public statements, appearance and official activities, according to a press release from the office.

"Today, the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump formally opened the Office of the Former President," the statement said.

It added, "The Office will be responsible for managing President Trump's correspondence, public statements, appearances and official activities to advance the interests of the US and to carry the agenda of the Trump administration."

"President Trump will always and forever be a champion for the American people," it further said.

The Hill reported that the title of the office could fuel speculation that Trump may not run for president again in 2024, something he and his advisers have not definitively weighed in on.

The US House of Representatives has delivered to the Senate the articles of impeachment against former President for inciting the riot at the Capitol building on January 6. Last week, US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said that Trump's impeachment trial is scheduled to begin the week of February 8.

It will be the first time in US history that any president faced two impeachment trials or that any president was impeached after he left office.
