Trump should stay off social media — as should most politicians
Deseret News ^ | 03/23/2021 | Samuel Benson

"For the few that can maneuver social media with the grace of Cox or Andrew Yang or Justin Amash, keep it up — and stay out of needless battles (with political opponents or trees). For everyone else, just leave it up to the communications team."

Suck it, assbite, you don’t want the truth and corruption to be told to all the people. You just want the deep state controlled media voice to be heard. True IS OUR voice.

I like President Trump on social media. It’s the best way to bypass the MSM.

President Trump successfully used social media to show the world just have much the Propaganda Media ABCCBSCNNNBCNPRNYTWAPO spread Fake News.

Just look at the nonsense that liar and forger Dan Rather spread, even today on CNN.

Unacceptable, because liberals in power - including running those platforms - will control the narrative.

Absolutely. The main stream media is the best avenue to get conservative ideas out. Jeez.

Anyone who holds up Justin Amash as an example is suspect.

I agree that Trump should stay away from Facebook and Twitter and start his own social network.

“Trump should stay off social media — as should most politicians”

I take it this article writer thinks President Trump harmed himself and the cause by using social media.

And that is why the captains of social media have shut the President down - to keep him from hurting his cause.

Such an argument is not even superficially plausible.

I agree 100%, social media is a poison that is ruining this country and lives. Nothing good is on Twatter or Fakebook

Trump is more popular now since he is not on social media, why is that? Because the number 1 thing people hated about Trump, was his tweets...

Twatter did him a giant favor

Does it need to be social though?

How about a platform where Trump just types what he things, or releases a press statement or whatever but nobody can respond or like it.

Download the app or go to the website and see for yourself what he stated. No million of likes, or idiotic responses for leftards. Just what he says.

I think social media is a poison, it ruins people’s brains.
