    Any "normal Private Citizen" would have been toast (ages ago) for posting 1/10th of the BS that Trump does.

    Might as well because all it would do is continue to highlight how much Disastrous Donnie lies

    Wow.

    I admit that would be rather interesting to see that play out.

    Tis the leftist way... we can't allow free speech.

    Thats why comment sections have been removed from leftwing sites... conservatives get on and point out how biased and stupid their articles are, so they just shut them down completely.

    Conservativism wins in any debate, so we just eliminate debates.

    And when this country does become a communist hellhole, will you be one of the ones who benefit from free **** or do you believe you'll be making decisions for everyone else?

    Private media entities have the right to ban anyone they want. It's called private property rights. Something you guys yell about all the time

    Another illustration of our lazy, uninformed, shameless right wing.

    The administration’s own study of public health preparedness presented to Congress paints a different picture. They graded our preparedness in different categories from 98% to 100% at the end of the Obama administration or beginning of the Trump administration.

    Were they lying then or now? Given the current environment we know that answer.

    Worse. This Is public freaking record!

    WRONG.Not even close.

    Anyway, I hope Twitter continues to flag Trump's tweets.

    He really needs to be called out on his BS.

    Why not? Twitter is a sewer. It would be good riddance.

    Twitter selectively censors those they don't agree with.... Stalin style.

    In ruling that the Baker can determine what message they will send out on their cakes, the Trump Supreme Court has backed
    the ability of private businesses to determine what messages they will allow to be posted.

    Was the Supreme Court wrong in saying the baker has the right not to bake the gay wedding cake?

    What right have they violated? They are a private company.
    The First Amendment only applies to government entities, it does not guarantee private platforms.

    They are a private company. Can I force Fox News to have Rachel Maddow on their broadcast every day?

    Kicking him off of Twitter would help him. Twitter doesn't want to help him. You should know that.

    Your response does not actually address what I said. You should know that.

    There are plenty of progressives calling for exactly that.
