Germany and France are shocked over Twitter’s decision to permanently ban President Trump from the platform, with German Chancellor Angela Merkel saying through a spokesman that lawmakers should set rules governing free speech, not private technology companies.

President Trump can sue Twitter, maybe get billions.

Section 230 of the Telecommunications Act says Twitter can be stripped of protections against liability because of censorship against Trump. Trump could also sue Twitter for defamation.

If that is true. he may get enough money to run again without contributions.

Or build himself a hell of a resort and sit back and take it easy. Cost to stay there is low for his supporters and rather high for the scum who will come crawling to him for donations the next elections.
