contain lies/misinformation.

They didn’t take down the Scarborough tweets, though.

Trump says they’re blocking his free speech...he’s furious.

Catbyte posted the tweets in question in post #14.

because he can't admit to himself that he's a lying sack of shit and will invariably bellow like a wounded animal and double down.

Every needle, pin, or paper cut that goes through his thin skin is pushing him closer to the edge.

He has just done too much damage. After he flames out completely and goes full Howard Hughes, I might be able to summon some compassion. Right now, I just want him OUT, however it is accomplished.

You know his followers all clicked that thinking they were being taken to Breitbart or Stormfront.

Love that they were confronted with facts. This should be the case for every lie he Tweets.

It is a minimum of what Twitter should be doing on the asshole and even then he whines about "Free Speech".

Free Speech is about the government not infringing on your rights to speak asshole! You want the NFL to fire people for kneeling during the National Anthem but you can't take Twitter fact checking you fucking lies?

Have your sycophantic lackeys transcribe your delusional ramblings and send out press releases on paper airplanes. You certainly aren't advocating a private company like Twitter should be taken over by the government, are you?

If there's one thing Chump can't tolerate, it's personal humiliation. Twitter did well by turning his own words against him, and embarrassing this POS.

I mean, for God's sake, next he'll declare that he will use his power to ban soccer playing. Even from a pure Machiavellian whatever-it-takes-to-turn-out-the-base perspective, it's just unhinged.

You'd think his cult would eventually get tired of watching their leader lose over and over and over.

They have only administered their property with a principled series of objectives.

The Shitstain Charleton has only ever tried to blind Americans with his Point of View and his Voice.
