    When did you become so pro Trump? And what were your political philosophies in 2004, 2008 or 2012?

    This is healthy.

    Trump has his supporters frothing at the amount over the press. Its a bad situation for a so-called democracy when people trust politicians over the news media for their information.

    The media is the enemy of the... "American people"

    - minus Muslim-Americans
    - minus Latino-Americans
    - minus African-Americans
    - minus Female Americans
    - minus Gay Americans
    - minus Poor White Americans

    Therefore, the media is the enemy of the Rich White American people.

    Agreed.

    I can't always be brainwashed, but when I am, it's usually because of screaming, ALL-CAPS text.

    I stopped reading the news because glorious leader demands it. Instead I watch Fox and Friends in my bathrobe.

    What he's saying is that you should get your news only from BREITBART.

    If you had followed me through out my CF posting history you would've known that I've always been evidently against the press and in favor of opening up libel laws. Freedom of press does not mean freedom to lie. People's careers and lives can get seriously damaged by the lying press, just go ask pewdiepie who was just fired because of the disgusting press.

    What would Trump do if Twitter just banned him from their service? I know they won't; I'm just curious.

    I'm thinking he'd nationalize Twitter and rename it to Trumper. Everyone's avatar would have to be a picture of Trump.

    I don't remember who you before this account. I also don't get why you'd be vehemently Pro Trump.

    All his supporters would also leave. Then twitter stocks would drop and investors would get pissed.

    This is my one and only account and the topic of this thread has more to do with the press then Trump.

    It ain't gonna happen and I know it. Was just wondering how he might react.

    I'd be fine with Twitter dying. Never had a Twitter account and I only hear of bad / stupid / annoying things from it.

    What if a Twitter competitor start-up hit the scene and a grassroots movement started (like the Women's March) for ppl to flee Twitter, delete their account and join the AltTwitter as protest against his account. Then Twitter's stock starts dropping and investors get pissed.

    No. Not the same. The AltTwitter I'm talking about has only one difference ... No Trump. You are protesting Trump by leaving Twitter.

    Anyhoot, no better than your stupid idea that Twitter's stock would drop if they banned one person for attacking the media. The use of Twitter worldwide would become even more cool, completely buffering them from any loss to Trumpsters getting made when they don't even have twitter accounts because they fear the NSA. Guys like you think the Internet only exists here in the US.
