Has the orange-fingered-one reacted to the meanness of Twitter and FB yet? Surely he won’t let this _throwing down of the gauntlet_ slide by. I recommend smartphones at dawn on the banks of, or better, IN the Potomac. Or have his aides kept the info from him in that (self)protective way they have? ---

It was the Trump campaign’s account that was restricted, not Trump’s personal account, right? So as long as Twitler can still spew his inane blather, I’m sure he doesn’t care. ---

“You did it Mr. President, you shut down the internet. But we saved a copy for you on this disk” That would shut him up for a while. ---

Twitter isn’t just deleting Individual 1’s tweet, they are suspending the accounts of people who respond to it, including reporters who just reported it, and the Democratic National Committee, who criticized it. ---

> [@Shoeless](#): > > It was the Trump campaign’s account that was restricted, not Trump’s personal account, right? So as long as Twitler can still spew his inane blather, I’m sure he doesn’t care. I don’t see this. Trump’s the kind of person who can’t accept any criticism, even if it’s meaningless. If a pizza place in Chicago, that Trump has never been to, said they would refuse to serve him, Trump would get outraged about it and would have Air Force One fly him to Chicago so he could complain in person. He’d issue an Executive Order requiring the pizza place owner to serve him and have a battalion of Marines sent in to enforce the order. Then he’d complain about the quality of the pizza and tell everyone they shouldn’t eat there. ---

at least his using a fork to eat the pizza would be more understandable in Chicago ---

This is Trump were talking about. He’d take a slice of Chicago style pizza and try to fold it in half and eat it by hand. ---

> [@ThelmaLou](#): > > Has the orange-fingered-one reacted to the meanness of Twitter and FB yet? Don’t know about Trump himself, but right now on Worldometer there’s a Trump ad entitled (in all caps), “Do you agree that Twitter is targeting President Trump?”. So at least the campaign is firing back in some way… ---

So, according to trump, if Biden is elected he’s going to immediately repeal the second amendment and take everybody’s guns away. Oh, and also disband all police departments. Pretty amazing feat for someone who, also according to trump, is so deep into dementia he doesn’t even know where he is! > Just like Radical Left New York is trying to destroy the NRA, if Biden becomes President your GREAT SECOND AMENDMENT doesn’t have a chance. Your guns will be taken away, immediately and without notice. No police, no guns! ---

Pretty amazing feat for someone who, also according to trump, is so deep into dementia he doesn’t even know where he is! Well, given that he’s already insisted that Biden has the power to hurt God, why should it be surprising that a mere amendment could stand in His way?
