It would be great if Trump used both.

Twitter may go tumbling. Would suit me fine. Other conservatives with a high profile could do the same.

Twitter needs a tax audit.

"My experience with President Trump’s Tweets:

A few hundred at anti-trump Tweetrs are programmed in by Twitter to appear at the top of the comments. This is a very select group whose selection is programmed into the system.

Some algorithm.

Start blocking these people and you will quickly see what I mean."

I try to flag those tweets as targeted harrassment then block the user.

All in a lead-up to the weeks/months before the 2020 elections.

Haha.. I was thinking along those same lines.. I hope President Trump ignores the so-called “rules” they enforce only on conservatives. Twitter flagging all of his Truthful tweets will further expose their political bias and hate.

So the public platform is going to let it’s non-American employees tell Americans what they can say?

IMO what the Krassenstein brothers in particular do constitutes criminal stalking and harassment.

The Krassenbots are accounts that are run by paid employees.

All you have to do is examine their tweeting patterns. All day, every day, 24/7/365.

And I guess they fail to recognize that President Trump is their single largest legit user. Customer rules.

I think Trump should start tweeting from TRUMPTOWN platform or US and we could all go over there and get off that wretched, soul sucking TWITTER.

Neither Twitter, Facebook, or Google are arbiters of ethical conduct. Their censorship is a violation of the first amendment. They need to be in court, charged with sedition.

It’s not illegal for a conservative to open a social media site.

They own the whole Internet from physical to DNS and have and will continue to shut down free speech platforms willy-nilly on grounds of danger -- "hate", or weapons, or whatnot, whenever the latest mob is stirred up or even when it's quiet.

Boycott Twitter. Social media has turned out to be more of a curse than a blessing.

Some new company, that I saw on here, just made it possibl to comment on ANY Site, though i don’t know the exact mechanism.

There is always a way.

Have faith :)

Fox (when it was less to the left) came out of nowhere and no one was expecting it.

There’s hope! :)

I’ve noticed that. Supporters with thousands of more likes/retweets than anyone will be far down the list compared to some of those regular detractors regardless of their popularity.

YouTube plays similar political games. Just as one example, on the desktop version (and maybe others) it will automatically display a paragraph of info from a ‘reputable’ source when one searches certain controversial subjects (9/11, MH370, etc.), as well as send any conspiracy-related videos way, way down to the list below MSM sources. Well, when you search the name Barack Obama on there, it comes with that approved paragraph, but you do NOT get that when you search Donald Trump. Long story short, Obama’s image must be protected, but they don’t really care about the conspiracies when it comes to Trump.

all of this is easy to fix: just pass Federal privacy legislation that NO ONE can collect or sell ANY information gleamed from usage of any website IF the user opts out, AND the home page of EVERY website attempting to do such MUST include a large and well labeled button that results in total opt-out when clicked ...
