Trump announced he wants to close down social media because they are being so mean to him.

"Close them down": Trump threatens action against social media platforms

https://www.axios.com/trump-social-m...b45e3a451.html

President Trump threatened to shut down or regulate social media platforms due to anti-conservative bias in a pair of Wednesday tweets — the day after Twitter's first fact-check against the president's claims on its platform.

Reality check: While his claim that social media companies target conservatives isn't new, an Axios analysis last year found that stories about the 2020 presidential election that drove the most engagement online often came from right-wing media outlets.

Are they a platform or a publisher?

They didn't think this through, apparently.

better that he submit his tweets for advance preview so that any that he may have gotten accidentally correct can then be posted

Show me ONE tweet by Obama or even Bush Jr (who certainly wasn't my choice, if I had to) that was as offensive as the daily tweetS your potus gives out, just ONE that insults an individual or a group.


Still no one?


Last chance

Who are they censoring?

Trump has threatened to sensor Twitter (from what I've heard), but all I've seen them say is that they will excercise their freedom to respond. I have not heard anything where they will not allow him to tweet his lies or his truths.

Who is threatening to censor, and who are they threatening to censor.

Back your claim up.
