I'm actually a little terrified by how many replies here are anti-free speech.

"Free speech" doesn't mean everyone has to listen to what everyone else is saying. We also have "free association," and the president is smart enough not to associate himself with Gab if it allows the type of stuff that Travis McGee posted as an example (to make a point).

I wish there were another social platform besides Twitter that the president could use. But Gab isn't the answer. Maybe there's another option?

Which is why you can block them.

I'm surprised there aren't several twitter alternatives out there. Not having competition allows twitter to be as despicable as it likes without consequence. Users can't just flee to a competitor when there aren't any viable competitors.

You began this thread asking why Trump doesn't post on Gab. This is why: Gabbers posting "Gas the K!kes!" memes right after Trump would post is why he will never post on Gab. Gabbers who will call him a Zionist agent K!ke lover etc in their replies is why.

Any more questions?

Court has ruled that POTUS can't block anybody. So much for free association.
He doesn't have to listen but he has to allow them and it...
That will be true no matter where he goes. He might as well stay with twitter.
