    Third page, and none of the usual suspects are going to jump in and defend your guy? Is it that bad?

    He's going to start his own social media service called Trumpeter. Only low IQ sycophants allowed.

    Ban him.


    Been saying it for three years.


    It'd be the most patriotic move any business has performed in this country in at least 60ish years.

    That would drive Me. Tweeting Trump over the deep end. He would go absolutely ballistic, veins popping out, little hands flailing, and screaming to the rooftops. I'd love to see that while eating a big bowl of popcorn.

    Seriously. It'd go down in history books.

    It'd also start a huge political rift in the country. But could be worth it.

    I read something that once you fact check, you delve into publisher’s territory. And this may impact an exempt status Twitter might have.
    Still trying to figure out what hell this means or if it’s even significant.

    Trump's response to Twitter Fact Checking is swifter than his COVID response. Not surprised.

    Promoting FACTS and suppressing LIES is not only significant but absolutely necessary

    What’s the difference in what CNN and FOX does? YouTube & Twitter was already removing posts critical of China. Twitter erased a bunch of #Obamagate posts.

    It seems this takes away Trumps message platform. The only significance I can make is that. And that Twitter’s censorship is exposed.

    A well-oiled machine... but what would you expect from a government being run by an incompetent tyrant having a temper tantrum?

    To me, the answer is to ban Trump and quit censoring.


    Win win.


    In all seriousness, Trump understands business, supposedly. His bankruptcies may say otherwise, but I think he understands what he's doing. He's latched on to a host business for free. He's using that to further his wealth, his profile, and, in his eyes, his grandiosity. He understands that that business has the right to sever it's ties with him any time it wants. They are under no obligation to let him use their service.

    It's kind of like when His Supreme Court absolved the baker of any wrongdoing for refusing service to the gay Colorado couple. Wouldn't you agree?


    So once again, the answer here is clearly to ban Trump from Twitter and not to censor or fact check posts anymore.


    Also, Jack Dorsey would be a national icon if he is what brings down the Trump administration because of a constitutional violation by the President. It may just happen.

    This conflict was inevitable and ultimately Trump will get what he wants because he has many avenues to pressure Twitter.

    Another step closer to destroying the social structure/culture of this country.

    People are in for a rocky road when the lameduck season starts
    It will extend the fundamental crack in the foundation of "The United States"
