Unless Twitter was recently absorbed into the government, this is not a Free Speech issue. This is a private business with its eyes on the bottom line doing what it wants to do.

I figure they will permanently ban him 2 weeks from today, as will Facebook. I don't think Fox News will even touch him going forward.

Trump can still issue official statements -- he just can't post on Twitter.

I'm sure he can govern without Twitter.
