    How many more strikes does he get?

    Does Twitter have an extra obligation to not ban him, as a former President with a major following?

    Trump is pretty much the most dangerous man in america. Should you deplatform the most dangerous man in America?

    I can’t decide if I want him to be able to tweet from prison or not.

    They should have banned him a long long time ago.

    They might try and have it both ways where they put embarrassing flags on every tweet with lies or violence incitement. Him promising to run in 24 is likely the reason. If he leaves the US though (I’d say 60% chance at this point) he then will likely be considered a foreign agent officially since a foreign govt will be giving him shelter in exchange for being their paid carnival barker.

    irrelevant guys, Twitter is now over:



    I'm wondering if she knows that Twitter isn't like Siri or Alexa? You can't talk to it and make it do things.

    He should be banned if he uses the platform to incite violence.

    In short, he'll be banned.

    They said once he leaves office he loses his protections and will be treated like everyone else.

    Ooohhhh. I like this, a lot. And all former presidents. I can do without Obama tweets and all his syrupy facebook and insta stuff. And then Trump would be automatically out.
