The president's tweet was about the riots in Minneapolis over the death of George Floyd. Floyd died on Monday after a white police officer pinned him to the ground for several minutes. Floyd, who is black, can be heard in a video of the arrest saying"I can't breathe." Demonstrations began in the state on Tuesday as protesters seek criminal charges against the police officers involved in Floyd's arrest.
Twitter's official communications handle said that the president's post"violates our policies regarding the glorification of violence based on the historical context of the last line, its connection to violence, and the risk it could inspire similar actions today." The White House came to Trump's defense on Friday morning by retweeting his controversial post with the caption:"The President did not glorify violence. He clearly condemned it." Again, the president's tweet was accompanied by the same warning label.
How about dealing with a pandemic, racism and 25% of our country being unemployed instead you roadie.
Dictators as in Trump, for example.
They should start with traitor trump and all his cronies.
They finally realized they can’t govern the country, and so they decided to burn it down.
Trump is as big-as-a-criminal as Twitter has on its platform.....So what happens to him?
Good work Jack! Hollow Ted
This whole ass went from defending his wife and “vote your conscious” to being a unabashed bootlicker. Texas should find a better Republican.
Ted Crüz and the entire White house staff should be investigated for colliding with Russia, inciting violence on Americans, and lying to protect dictator Trump!
Twitter is an Iranian Iranian asset! Should be INVESTIGATED right away! We should also look into why they don’t translate my tweets into Russian anymore!
Dear Twitter, Please consider closing all accounts and the platform for a couple of months. When things settle down come back and we will be back . But for now, put an end to this stupidity. Sincerely,
ALL BECAUSE TWITTER FACT CHECKED (ONLY) 2 OF THE LIES HE’S BE PUTTING UP FOR THE LONGEST OF TIME. AND HE’S MAD SO HE CALLED ON TED DUMB ASS CRUZ TO BACK HIS PLAY OF COMING AFTER TWITTER ( EVERYONE STOP USING FACEBOOK RIGHT NOW). AND SHUT THEM BOTH UP.
The biggest abuser of Twitter is Trump. Passing propaganda, lies, and misinformation on many levels.
tedcruz WE need a criminal investigation into teddy and all GOP
Yes, twitter must be investigated, it should not enforce it’s views
Someone needs to investigate Ted’s father who Trump said assinated JFK.
You how?
My Momma always told me 'actions speak louder than words' and 'Think before you speak' Maybe those in the WH, should take note!!!
There is not a bigger terrorist and dictator than realDonaldTrump
They should know since it's DJT leading the way.
Yes they did, Trump
Does Trump realize he is talking about himself?
when these platforms don't perform your orders, you labels them as terrorists. so bad interaction.!!
Fuck tedcruz He's a big part of the reason America is burning today.
Can’t believe the White House is calling out potus like that?
Who cares what tedcruz thinks? This is just a move up try and put him in trumps good graces. He’s in for a real shock in November. We have king memories.
You mean trump?
Yeah his name was Donald Trump
Trump is like a spoiled rich child. Cross him and all hell breaks loose, starting with namecalling.
Ummmmm yes, yes it does. Hello?! So stop causing our nation terror. Dump
Yes it does, but now they are starting to pull the reigns on Trump and his bullshit. The dicktator and terrorist in the white house is bitching that they are finally shutting him up.
That's the pot calling the kettle tarnished
Wake up mr. Trump, you are the dictator.
Dictator? Trump finally take a look at a mirror.🙄
Yes, Twitter lets Trump abuse its platform
And they are absolutely right, TreasonousTrump and the RepublicanCommunistParty all have platforms on Twitter and Facebook and should have criminal charges brought against them and that’s including tedcruz
tedcruz still trying to get Trump to notice him. Pathetic. The country is on fire Ted and this is all you are worried about. Be a Leader. Do something to help
Takes one to know one?
I’m soooo disappointed in Cruz. Trump decimated Cruz and humiliated his wife. I know politics can be a rough game, but there are limits. Trump even spurned Cruz’s dead father. What a wimp Ted Cruz is and I’m sure his wife never has sex with him because his weakness is sickening.
Yes Ted Cruz youvtoo shoukd be investigatedTrump
so the white house agrees that trump should be kicked off twitter.great..
Why is their first instinct always to call for a criminal investigation into non-existent crimes?
Cruz is a intellectual child among men.
Guess Cruz is cuddling up now and forgiven Trump for all the crap he said about Cruz’s wife and Dad.
Well the White House houses the biggest dictator terrorist on Twitter so believe it. They would know.
Could tedcruz Ted Cruz debase himself any more in the service of this lame-duck moron of a president? The answer is, yes, Cruz probably can and will.
Yeah, they’re right, it’s Trump
Donald Trump = No. 1 dictator!!
Trump is both. So the Whitehouse is correct.
Great virus killing people, jobs lost, police killing people and now riots going on and yes our President is having war with Twitter! Now isn’t that a joke! realDonaldTrump
kayaeger1 Ted Cruz- should be very very careful what He says. Just good advise!
Lol, Trump is both a terrorist *and* dictator. 25thAmendment
Agree They need to vet everything on Twitter and Facebook
I mean they should know.... Donald Trump, his Royal doofuss uses it.
With everything going on in our country, this is how our leaders are spending their time? Pathetic.
Especially this one
Yep! Donald J Trump is the primary abuser of that! The idiot head of state can't address his psychotic lying disorder and there is no one in his party with a spine to call it out.
Woo woo all aboard the Trump Twitter Train.
Speedy_Tomato Twitter, every morning or night I go on Twitter, the first I see are every GOP terrorists and groups Do they pay a lot? realDonaldTrump tedcruz LindseyGrahamSC senatemajldr GOPChairwoman w_terrence IngrahamAngle I follow them cause they are Terrorists, EoS
Like Russia did on Facebook? Also tedcruz what evidence r u showing the American people that what u say is true?
This is so irritating.
Ted must be looking to appease his bosses again ... juxtaposed to having an independence in thought process ... yet again. 'Yes man' back at it, so it would appear.
You believe that...the biggest abuser of Twitter says terrorists & dictators are the problems on Twitter. Pot calling the kettle black.
Fuck Ted Cruz and the Republicans
Well, 45th is the biggest dictator on the platform. TrumpIsANationalDisgrace
You mean, like, Donald Trump?
And then they came for Twitter....(Sorry now for what you've allowed jack ?)
Projection again...
So GUTLESS Ted Cruz wants Twitter investigated. All because of the whining of the guy who called his wife ugly.SenTedCruz
They’re not wrong, but like the movie, the noise is coming from INSIDE the house.
Ted Cruz wants to investigate Twitter for allowing Iranian regime figures to use the the platform, but is as usually silent or commending of it when Trump uses it to glorify violence and hurl threats at US citizens very much the same way Iran does.
Yea, that's just what we need. Millions of Jobs Lost, Over 100,000 Americans Died From Coronavirus, Protests All Over America. And Ted Cruz Wants to Punish Twitter for Fact Checking The President. What the Hell is wrong with these Republicans.
You don't have to look far. We witness the abuse from Trump and the White House daily.
Look at trump. Inciting violence upon the citizens of the country he is the president of because leadership has led to the murder of yet another black AMERICAN CITIZEN. He is literally quoting racist on here. smh
Just Trump.
WhiteHouse is fucking insane.
Yes. The terrorist and dictator I see on Twitter the most is named Donald.
😂
Which is precisely why we want him banned
I mean, iran called for the destruction of a sovereign nation on twitter this week.
Only terrorists are the ones claiming there are terrorists on twitter. Look in the mirror
Will SenTedCruz also be investigating Facebook ?
LOL
