kimberlyaleah Unlike the patent, obvious lie that Donald John Trump posted regarding mail in balloting - the hateful content of the message may have been first amendment protected. It certainly violates Twitter guidelines, though. Any platform has its standards. So. No retweets. No problem.

Let everyone take a moment to understand that a United States President has publicly called for the United States Military to “start shooting” United States Citizens here on our United States HomeLand!!! No matter where you stand, this should SHAKE YOUR SOUL TO THE CORE!!!🇺🇸

Don’t show his f’n ugly face any more

He’s the thug!

Ladies and gentlemen I present to you the biggest fool in the world. Simply pathetic.

What about him thanking cowboys for saying the only good democrat is a dead democrat .... on par with Hitler !

April 29, 2015     President Obama doesn't regret using the term 'thug' in describing the violent rioters in Baltimore this week,

I Guess in RS opinion Twitter should be in Charge of The Country and approves of Mass violent protest ? Does anybody have control over what you guys post ? RS = Really Sad

For Ffs when says thugs he’s not talking about black people he’s talking about looters and rioters and as I recall Obama used the same term to label Baltimore rioters. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what he means and stop putting race into everything 🤡🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

Trump is a racist old tyrant. He need to go.

Someone should have explained the Presidency is an actual job not a 4 year campaign rally. 102,000 deceased Americans and 39 million unemployed Americans and the messiah tweets threats. The Trump Agenda Dead or Broke 2020, no thanks!

Trump clearly on the side of the shit cops who murdered Mr Floyd.

He has completely lost it

The new Pandemic created by Trumpty 'Foot-In-Mouth Disease'.

Wow. Twitter is getting serious. I wonder why it didn't flag Trump's tweets much earlier.

PresidentTHUG

and the White House account got flagged, too

Which also came from the White House account. He only uses 'Thugs' about black Americans. DumptheRacistGOP

Trump wants this country in shambles to protect his vanity. realDonaldTrump SenateGOP senatemajldr STOP 🛑 THE MADNESS!

He should sit back and let them burn the cities.

Twitter Flags Donald Trump ‘Looting, Shooting’ Tweet As “Glorifying Violence”Twitter has hidden a tweet by U.S. President Donald Trump because the platform says “it violated the Twitter Rules about glorifying violence”. Users can still view the tweet by clicking… Great click bait.... You almost had me convinced that you cared. Because it is. He is the cause of the increase in hate crimes. Doesn't really help their case when it comes to political bias which Trump accused them of. Given video footage of a man being murdered is on Twitter this is pretty pathetic.

Twitter flags Trump tweet on Minneapolis protests for 'glorifying violence'The social media platform added a warning to his tweet encouraging violence against unarmed civilians protesting the death of George Floyd. Which he didn’t... Good for Twitter. Trump just divides a nation which results in violence and hatred. Most of his tweets fall into this category. Twitter God will reward u for standing for the true. But God is watching the evangelicals who are supporting Trump's violence just because he stands against abortion and LGBTQ. Jesus loves everyone equally. Are you free from sin? Jesus 'sin is sin'
