How Twitter Censoring President Trump Over His 'They're After You' Tweet Pretty Much Proves His Point
Townhall ^ | 07/02/2020 | Matt Vespa

President Trump has been censored yet again, and the tweet pretty much proves his point about the nature of the bias against him. In a tweet he’s shared before, it shows a black and white picture of the president with the caption “in reality, they’re not after me. They’re after you.” You’ve probably seen this meme. It strikes at the heart of his drain the swamp mentality and the bias lobbed against him. He’s not a politician. He’s a bull in a china closet and he likes it. He wants to disrupt DC and his enemies will do all they can to smother him.

On trade, especially, he’s taken on the free trade establishment in both parties. The new USMCA went into effect yesterday, by the way. One of the many promises kept by this administration concerning trade deals.

Anyway, that tweet is not gone per se, but the image has vanished, smothered by the social media giants, who we all know lean far to the left on politics.

Liberal “elites” in the ruling class laugh at the people and mock them.

They think they don’t matter.

This isn’t the first time. It’s becoming more frequent that the president’s tweets are targeted by Twitter. During the riots in Minneapolis, the social media company said Trump’s tweets about the chaos amounted to glorifying violence, which was against their standards and practices. Cue the eye-rolls. Even some liberal reporters noted that this standard was arbitrary and would never be applied equally. Yeah, The Nation and Slate both peddled pieces defending the destruction of property and excusing violent protests; those tweets were never flagged. With lefty mobs trying to tear down statues, in some cases succeeding, and these clowns also establishing so-called autonomous zones, Trump vowed to enforce the law.

Personally, probably wishful thinking BUT I am waiting for that the ‘Ma Bell’ sledgehammer to drop on DorseyIdiot, Google, Facebook, Youtube, etc.

These punks had better hope that Plugs wins...otherwise there just might be an Executive Order or two that they don’t like.

Who in the hell is going to enforce that? Pretty much at least 90% of the federal government will give Trump the finger if he ordered a monopoly breakup of tech information companies.

Just don’t hold your breath on that to happen.

In the meantime, try PARLER for a very refreshing change. There have been many conservatives who have had enough of #JackDorsey and his cheap sh*t that have made the move.

I wonder what they would do with the old pro-Johnson, anti-Goldwater advertisement of the little girl picking flowers, then ends in a nuclear blast.

He should re-enact that at a rally.

Trump should have created group of people whose sole job is to find patriotic loyalists and employ them in the bureaucracy.

Excellent idea! At a point in his presentation dramatically raise a black screen behind him that carries the narrative words and have him stand before it and strike the stern pose. I would love to see that!
