Should President Trump ditch Twitter and signup to Parler?
Twitter ^ | 29 May 2020 | RandFan

OK This really crosses the line ...

Twitter are now directly censoring Trump's tweets!

Do you think he should give up on Twitter and signup to an alternative like Parler(.com)?

Many banned/shunned conservatives are on that site and it's a very similar platform to Twitter.

If Trump left Twitter and signed up to Parler(.com) he would take many of his 80 MILLION followers with him!

It could be HUGE...

Discuss!

Thanks for the “Dissenter” - that sounds interesting. I had pretty much stopped commenting on any articles at their source, because of the oppression/censorship of conservatives...where your comments are regulated at the whim of some unaccountable partisans.

FR is all you need really if you don’t plan on posting and reaching a bigger audience.

Anything newsworthy gets posted here.

Amen to that. I also find so many bright minds of varying professions that every issue is thoroughly covered, researched, and debated.

"Why not sign-up here? 😊" That would certainly be something to behold.

The site would crash on day one. It would be nice though.

Websites come and go in my experience.

Anyone remember MySpace??

Twitter could well see themselves consigned to history.

Seriously, why can’t some conservative billionaire start a new twitter type forum? He’d get 100 million users the first day.

“FR is all you need really if you don’t plan on posting and reaching a bigger audience.”

I don’t know i ended up here from out there in internet land. Lurked for about 2 years? before posting.
Anyhow it use to be key words would appear in search...so, a post on FR would show up in searches?...wouldn’t be surprised Googly filter such searches out.

Its here (https://twitter.com/parler_app)

It’s a very good interface and platform they have and its catching on especially with conservatives who are sick of censorship.

I don't want to give them my cell phone number.

Not sure why they insist on that... Must be a reason.

Totally nonsensical statement. He’s not a CEO, he is the President. CEO’s do not need to bypass a hostile press to get out unfiltered communications to the people.

Pirkle is my maiden name. I’m mostly Scottish with Welsh, Irish, and Danish. Viking heritage and a natural redhead, or I was until middle age took care of that!! :-)

The cell phone number is for account security. They send you a code if you forget your password or need help logging in to your account. They have never abused mine.

My company does that with phones and computers, I'm more hesitant with third parties.

I can understand that but the way things on the Net are set up now it’s hard to get out of it. I like for them to use my cell phone number because I get any warning or notification immediately. Not too long ago somebody tried to hack my eBay and PayPal accounts on the same day. My cell phone was going off like mad until I went to both accounts and changed my password. The hackers couldn’t get by the other security measures both accounts use so I had enough time to get it all changed. Since somebody tried to hack it both eBay and PayPal added another layer of security for me to get back in if I get locked out.
