Trump Launches New Communications Platform months after Twitter, Facebook Ban

[BowlBrother85]

So we've moved from you asserting that Trump thinks that and you have no trouble substantiating, to you thinking he thinks that, and thinking he will reveal himself in the future. And you use blue font' but didn't intend sarcasm.

I'm sure you see the incongruity of your logic. "LOL!"

I didn't use a blue font in that post you replied to.

I didn't say that I would have no trouble substantiating anything right now. I said that I think Trump believes that he will be reinstated as President, and he will be the one to confirm this at the next conservative conference or rally. It's conjecture on a message board.

It sounds exactly like him, but you're talking to a group that stuck by him through ingesting disinfectant and nuking hurricanes. But as with all cults, the leader is the ultimate authority and unflattering external sources are not to be trusted.

Not to stand up for career politicians, but trump will forever wear the crown of the most incompetent at governing. Only thing he could get through a republican congress was a tax cut, the lowest hanging fruit possible.

Pass the pipe.

Seriously, WTF. Carter inherited a disaster and the decade that followed was pretty great. What did you expect him to do? Fix the worst economy since the great depression overnight?

Trump inherited an upward bound economy and squandered it with bad economic policies and runaway spending. But at least the first 2 years were pretty good, I guess. You give him way too much credit for that.

Just stop. ALL the business channels are saying that the economy is about to go crazy. THe only thing holding it back will be the Biden policies. Removing onerous government regulations and stupid mandates... putting his thumb on China are responsible.

I thought you were a libertarian.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

That's all you got?

He's the most divisive I can think of, but there is probably a mayor or a losing politician I'm not thinking of. David Duke? Who is more divisive? You have failed to come up with one name or one example, though multiple posters are asking for this.

LOL

While in principle I don’t like big tech silencing, in this case it was appropriate.

Trump will start a civil war to satiate his ego, he needs to be shut down.

This is exactly why we are seeing the demise of this country

So this isn't you in the post I replied to?

I don't think Democrats care how much money he has... We're just glad that he isn't the president anymore. (I sure hope he isn't reinstated! LOL!)

Perhaps you should consider how you communicate if you can't recall doing so. You too, @tvolsfan, Chuckles.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Did he make money? Last I heard he was in debt up to his comb over and unable to pay his bills. Do you consider a smart businessman the type of person who has a handful of bankruptcies, dozens of failed ventures, a history of having his assets seized because he couldn't pay any bills, and a history of not paying people for services rendered? To me that sounds like broke, spoiled brat who only has what he has because Daddy worked hard and has a hefty trust fund.

LOL

Trump would have almost certainly been banned a long time ago for terms of service violations if not for the fact that he was President. The fiasco at the Capitol just forced their hand.

So, you don't like media determining what the public should see - what is 'news' - except when you do. FFS, man....

This is exactly why we are seeing the demise of this country

You and I just haven't learned the location of the "In case of Trump emergency, break the Republic" alarm.

 

[NCFisher]

Which should alarm even you, since the same media platforms had no appetite shortage for allowing every violent group from ISIS to BLM/Antifa a platform for advocating their violence. They literally kiss the azz of every authoritarian regime ruling a desired populace of consumers. Google removes new 'Diversity Chief' for anti-jew posts.

But Trump!!!!!....

You people.

If your argument is the social media companies should be consistent and remove other accounts that violate their terms of service, fair enough. If you're arguing that they are obligated to let Trump use their platform to spew his ******** propaganda, I'm unmoved and unsympathetic.

I've been suspended from Facebook twice in the past six months. Once for saying men, not women, are responsible for women being raped. Got an even longer vacation for jokingly threatening one of my friends with my prosthetic up side his head.

They seem really concerned with what the rank and file do, but anyone who guarantees traffic gets quite a bit if leeway.

Sounds like you went out on a limb.

(sorry Ash, I couldn't help myself).

 

[Orangeslice13]

You are giving Trump too much credit. Do you get to where Trump is, by believing that the Vice President has the complete authority to dismiss electoral votes from states they lost? That would mark one hell of a conflict of interest wouldn't it? Pence's name was on the ballot too. Think about how ridiculous that was for a minute.

Trump just can't let things go and move on. There are many examples of this, including the incident where he drew a cone around Alabama on a weather forecast map with a Sharpie, so he could win a fight with the National Weather Service. Trump is every bit this stubborn and delusional.

He didn’t believe that when he said it. Just playing the game.
For the record I don’t think AOC or Nancy P are stupid either. I think they all think the American people are stupid though.

Just post a video on FB showing some disgruntled teen assaulting an elderly person. Facebook will welcome you back with open arms.

They can either function as platforms - the basis they alleged to operate under for Section 230 protections - or cease to have that protection and censor at will.


What ******* propaganda is that, exactly? I think if you answer that, we may find that it's not propaganda that offends you, but Trump, and that we won't find similar censorship of similar 'propaganda' nor that you've a distaste for ******* propaganda generally.

 

[NCFisher]

I think he did believe it but was simply wrong, and that scholars (such as Yoo @ UC Berkeley and Delahunty @ St. Thomas U, and constitutional lawyer Ivan Raiklin) who advanced that constitutional theory were also wrong.
Agree they are politically smart but believe stupid things and are top-shelf opportunists.

Lol. I forgot about that section 230 silliness Trump and his moronic sycophants were whimpering about.

Falsely claiming the election was stolen was absolutely propaganda that should be offensive to anyone living in a country with a long tradition of representative democracy.

Lol. I forgot about that section 230 silliness morons like Trump whined about.

Now we're getting somewhere. Have you voiced similar distaste and advocated the censor of Clinton, Biden, Pelosi, a veritable laundry list of politicians and media hacks who claimed the 2016 election was stolen? That 2/3rds of Democrats think Russia 'definitely' and 'likely' changed vote tallies to elect Trump - "Lol" - ? That Trump was a Russian asset?

Maybe you have and I simply missed it, eh?

Show me the tweets/comments/etc. that indicate those three (or other prominent democrats) claimed the election was actually stolen in 2016. Go on, show me where they claimed Hillary got enough votes in enough states to reach 270 and was denied the White House due to election fraud. And no, saying Russia attempted to influence the election is not the same as saying the election was rigged.

 

[hUTch2002]

It's the easiest, most basic and self-evident answer in the world...because that many people hated Trump. It's literally the same answer to "how did Trump get so many votes against Hillary/Biden?"...because that many people hated Hillary/Biden. Like I said earlier in the thread, politics these days are more about who you hate.

Trump lost no ground. His percentage of the total vote actually went up. Without the changes to mail in ballot rules Trump gets re-elected.

Three irrelevant statements that don't contradict his point at all.
