Twitter hides Donald Trump tweet for “glorifying violence”
This is very interesting to watch unfold in real-time.<p>I find it fascinating the President of the United States is ranting about 1st Amendment violations with regards to a private business. Pretty sure there is nothing in the 1st Amendment that says he is guaranteed the right to tweet.<p>I hope Twitter takes this a step further the next time he violates their ToS and gives his account a 48 hour suspension.<p>I understand why Trump is picking this fight but I can&#x27;t help but feel Twitter hold the power. Sure Trump has been a big driving factor in Twitter really hitting mainstream but I would be surprised if he was still adding huge value to the platform. If anything banning Trump would be the biggest thing to ever happen to Twitter as he wouldn&#x27;t let it go.<p>However I can&#x27;t see a way for Trump to win such a fight. It could go all the way to the SCOTUS but if they sided against Twitter it would affect literally every big social media platform in the US which I can&#x27;t see happening.<p>Zooming all the way out I don&#x27;t see why Twitter really care about such a fight as there is no way Google and Facebook (to name just two) would let things go against Twitter as it would be devastating to them as well.
