It doesn't stand for free speech.Trump said that Twitter doesnât stand for âfree speech,â thatâs ignorant, wrong, and idiotic.He was ultimately banned after he tweeted that he would not be attending the inauguration.Another Trump lie.We are not 1935 Germany. Americans are in for a jarring wake-up call if they think this fight is over.
President Donald Trump responded to Twitterâs move to permanently suspend his account from its platform late Friday, condemning the big tech giant and saying that it does not stand for free speech.
The president also said he anticipates a âbig announcementâ soon and that his team is negotiating with other sites and is also looking at building a separate platform.
âAs I have been saying for a long time, Twitter has gone further and further in banning free speech, and tonight, Twitter employees have coordinated with the Democrats and the Radical Left in removing my account from their platform, to silence meâand YOU, the 75,000,000 great patriots who voted for me,â Trump said in a statement.
âTwitter may be a private company, but without the governmentâs gift of Section 230 they would not exist for long,â he added.
âI predicted this would happen. We have been negotiating with various other sites, and will have a big announcement soon, while we also look at the possibilities of building out our own platform in the near future. We will not be SILENCED!â he said.
âTwitter is not about FREE SPEECH. They are all about promoting a Radical Left platform where some of the most vicious people in the world are allowed to speak freely,â Trump continued. âSTAY TUNED!â

No one seeks to 'silence' Trump.
That he made these idiotic remarks is proof of that.
What's idiotic about that??
Nobody will be attending.
The doctrine of free speech concerns solely the relationship between government and those governed, not between or among private persons or private entities â such as social media platforms.
Twitter suspending someoneâs account doesnât âviolateâ free speech.
Trump the demagogue is as usual lying.
What, are you chained to a radiator with no access to news?
