Anybody can suppress speech except the government. You don’t have freedom of the press unless you own the TV station/paper/website/etc. Trump or anyone else is free to setup a paper or website and publish what they want and ban anybody they want. He’s too stupid to know that. ---

> [@Bijou\_Drains](#): > > Has he started his tantrum over the labeling? When you asked this, was it already working hours in Moscow? > [@kaylasdad99](#): > > Gonna be fun to watch when he nationalizes Twitter. Yeah. I’m actually surprised at the beginning of his pandemic response, he did not declare Twitter to be an essential service and have all their workers appear in the offices in person. Of course we’re dealing with a person who has no clue as to what governmental powers exist in the United States of America, so no telling what he’ll try. ---

WOW he’s on quite a Twitter tear today, even by his nutso standards. In addition to still flogging the batshit insane Scarborough theory, in the last 5 hours he’s posted several tweets on the following subjects: Obamagate-related “OBAMAGATE MAKES WATERGATE LOOK LIKE SMALL POTATOES!” mail-in ballot theft, the Radical Left Lamestream media unfairly blaming him for the US CoVID response, social media platforms suppressing Conservative voices, and a couple stupid foreign-policy related tweets just to round things out. It’s like a greatest hits parade of his sick, twisted mind. ---

I don’t understand why his supporters think he isn’t insane. I understand why they support him, I don’t get why they waste time trying to convince people we aren’t seeing what we’re seeing. ---

I understand why they support him, I don’t get why they waste time trying to convince people we aren’t seeing what we’re seeing. On another board, I got told that Trump was just asking questions about Scarborough, not actually accusing him of murder. The denial is deep. ---
