from the official White House account, which had reposted Trump's tweet. Earlier this week, Twitter provided a link to facts about mail-in voting alongside two Trump tweets alleging, without evidence, that the process invites fraud.
"They’ve never added more context to his tweets before the tweet on mail balloting, and they’ve never shielded users from a tweet from Trump for glorifying violence before," said Brendan Nyhan, a Dartmouth College political science professor who has studied misinformation on social media.Until now,"they really have been the most laissez-faire of the platforms," Napoli said. But"this may be the new normal for them.
In response to Twitter's action on Friday, the White House's official Twitter account criticized the social media company, saying Trump's tweet discouraged violence and that Twitter is hypocritical because it allows"terrorists, dictators, and foreign propagandists to abuse its platform.
Experts say it's extremely unlikely that he will achieve his goal without congressional action, which is similarly unlikely despite a degree of bipartisan discontent with Facebook, Twitter and Google. In addition to the Communications Decency Act, the First Amendment likely protects the social media companies from a government crackdown on their editorial decisions, experts say.
MrsPerrin I certainly Hope they do! I recently Disengaged my account when Twitter refused to remove the claims of Joe Scarborough murdering a worker in his office 19 years ago. I recently rejoined when they placed a FactCheck label on realDonaldTrump, hoping it would lead to him leaving
It would be a good start
Why are these media forums scared of this POS
Twitter has no balls to take down the President
Trump-Intellectually and emotionally handicapped
Everyone should ban trump. he should be in jail.
Unfortunately Trump’s schizophrenic raving is the best evidence of his incompetence and inability to even adequately perform the duties of his office. And the best argument for not allowing it to go on for another 4 years !!
Just do it please!!
I hope he does close down Twitter and Facebook. He will lose the election worse than any candidate ever. He is a complete dope.
Come on jack Do it.
Twitter SMDH!
Hopefully immediately !
I recently heard that Trump is about to launch his own Twitter-like platform. It will be called TRUMPER where only Trump will be allowed to trump his trumpers. 📢
Yes, they need to take a stand against him.
He would stroke out. C'mon, Twitter, shut him down!
Let them. Dig their own grave.
I think that Trump should look at Twitters terms of service and Twitter should suspend his account when he violates it.
They don't have the Balls to
ANOTHER ONE BITE THE DUST JUST ONE MORE LIE from the MORON IN CHIEF
YOU CAN’T FIX STUPID
Ban his a—, and the rest of his family to, permanently.
Twitter was Trumps number one platform for spreading his bull until they dared to correct him, and then he wanted it gone like everyone who disagreed with him
I hope so!
Please
We hope so
Following China's lead
That would be very nice!
Twitter should.
Will president trump ban twitter?
Yes they should and Can
might save our democracy if they do
As president, no matter how hideous his posts, it is in our interest to know what he says, good or bad; Twitter is doing the right thing by at least censoring or fact-checking his tweets. Jack Dorsey has had the b... to stand up to him, not Zuckerberg.
so we dare to hope!!?
I hope so
Sure, great business model if they do.
So much winning. He sure made America great. Black men being murdered, fired pandemic response team, 100,000 deaths, mass unemployment. F this guy. But hey, those stocks are up 🙄
I hope twitter bans him
2 words that should never be used together; President and Trump.
Twitter should not ban our president. Below are the types of people who should be banned from Twitter. The attached post stayed up for five days before Twitter pulled it. That is a bunch of crap and she should be arrested and questioned.
Not a chance.
No they will not. Should they? Maybe. Is he protected by the 1st amend? Is it stranger than fiction that we’re even asking this question about the POTUS? AnyoneButTrump2020
Ban the IDIOT POTUS
Yes. Yes, they should.
We praying
Twittter will lose all its business very spo
Nope but our President is gonna take care of violent rioters in cities!
About time!
Is Li Fei-Fei from The Communist Party of China the new ruler on Twitter?
The question is ... Will Trump van Tweeter? 😂
Please! A break for America!
Please do! I’ve been reporting his tweets since day 1. He’s a bully
