Trump Vows To Start Own Social Platform After Being Banned From TwitterPA/@POTUS/Twitter Donald Trump has stated he wants to create his own social media platform after being permanently suspended from Twitter.
The outgoing President of the United States was permanently banned from the platform yesterday, January 8, with Twitter stating that Trump may incite further violence as its reason for removing the 74-year-old from the platform.
Announcing the news, the social media platform said in a statement: ‘After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them – specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter – we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence.’
Twitter’s permanent suspension of Trump comes after Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat also blocked him from posting on its platforms.
However, Trump managed to worm his way round his recent ban by logging into the @POTUS Twitter account and tweeting from there instead.
The thread of posts read:
As I have been saying for a long time, Twitter has gone further and further in banning free speech, and tonight, Twitter employees have coordinated with the Democrats and the Radical Left in removing my account from their platform, to silence me — and YOU, the 75,000,000 great patriots who voted for me.
He continued, ‘Twitter may be private company, but without the government’s gift of Section 230 they would not exist for long. I predicted this would happen. We have been negotiating with various other sites, and while have a big announcement soon.’
Trump went on to say that he is looking at the possibilities around building his own platform ‘in the near future’ and blamed Twitter for not allowing free speech. The ‘other sites’ Trump claims to be in talks with haven’t been named, however.
He also said Twitter were about ‘promoting a Radical Left platform where some of the most vicious people in the world are allowed to speak freely’.
The thread of tweets has since been deleted from the page.
Trump’s account had almost 90 million followers before its permanent suspension, something which made up nearly half of the company’s total base of monetizable daily active users, reported the MailOnline.
Following his recent outbursts, doctors have stated they believe Trump is in need of a psychiatric assessment.
In new documents submitted to Congress yesterday by Dr. Bandy Lee, Yale University professor and president of World Mental Health Coalition, and other psychiatric experts, it requested ‘the involuntary admission’ of Trump who ‘needs to be evaluated for the least restrictive means of containment.’
In the meantime, articles of impeachment against the soon-to-be former president are expected to be brought against him on Monday, January 11.
not sure he really is, and these are just social media sites not like Apple who make products or even Google.
Twitter and FB are just more leftist media outlets.
they can fall in a second.
Rush left on his own to show support, and he had almost million followers.
make yourself a HERO..... offer this site to President Trump...... ???
There are other ways to download apps
FFS people here are just quitters. is this how you tackle things in your life all negative and dejected before you start?
damn
This needed to be done on election night 2016; it was very clear the elites were not going to be caught unawares again. As president he probably couldn’t do it himself, but it should have been done. I know, I didn’t do it - I know very little about it (don’t use FB, Twitter, etc.).
Some are speculating that Don Jr. will be the "surrogate" for President Trump on Twatter going forward.
Why?
Stop feeding the Twatter beast! President Trump is half of Twatter's income. GET OFF TWATTER COMPLETELY! So should all his followers. (Note: I do not have a Twatter account.)
It's not easy for any company to survive when they lose half their revenue. It's time to exercise the economic power we, President Trump's supporters have. STARVE those companies like TWATTER that promote LEFTIST PROGRESSIVE EXTREMIST SOCIALISM in this country and drive a stake through their hearts.
That's how we kill Socialism.
He probably has been laying ground already.
So, who’s going to host his platform? Even if you find some workaround to bypass the control Google and Apple have, eventually, this censorship is going to end up at the ISP level. AT&T, Verizon, Comcast. The people that control the actual physical lines of communication are going to ultimately be deciding what content you can access.
And no, we do not control the Supreme Court, the Left controls that too.
If this is true, this is not good, because it means Trump will not pull the trigger on implementing the Insurrection Act while he’s still the CIC. After he’s gone posting on social media, news blogs, and rallies won’t amount to a fart in the wind. Only victorius force of arms will end this coming nightmare.
“I’ve tried dozens of times to delete my account...”
Post something anti-liberal along the lines of...”Trump is the greatest human being alive. China Joe and his Ho will never be my President. Nancy Pelosi is so ugly she gives the poor platypus hope they could eventually be crowned Miss Universe.”
Have a friend report you thru the “Report Abuse” link. Account termination should shortly in this latest purge.
“The people that control the actual physical lines of communication are going to ultimately be deciding what content you can access.”
“We’ve taken care of everything
The words you read
The songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure
To your eye”
Already gone from those “stores”.
“...follow shortly...”
This is a bunch of hooey! These people have lost it.
Anything will always be accessible via the browser.
I’m onboard.
It will get banned from app stores like Parler just was. And then it can’t be accessed by smart phone users.
That’s very funny.
Thanks for sharing it.
