Politics Trump will sign executive order on 'social media'

[SlyPokerDog]

Donald Trump will sign executive order on 'social media' after threatening to CLOSE platforms he claims are censoring conservatives in wake of Twitter fact-checking his tweets

• President Trump plans to sign a 'social media'-focused executive order on Thursday, White House aides told reporters traveling on Air Force One
• They have no details about what the executive order would say, though Trump has been fighting with Twitter ever since the company fact-checked him
• In Wednesday morning tweets, the president said he would regulate or 'close down' social media companies he perceived as censoring conservative voices
• On Tuesday, Twitter had flagged two Trump tweets that suggested mail-in voting was more ripe for widespread voter fraud than casting in-person votes
• The president and the GOP have been against governors' plans to send ballots to every American so they aren't forced to vote in-person during a pandemic
• While Democrats argue this is the best way to vote for citizens' safety, Trump has alleged that ballots could be stolen, harvested or created fraudulently

Gee, I wonder if he'll also want to "close" newspapers and cable news outlets that don't push his line of bull. What a fricking nitwit.

 

[RR7]

Will love seeing this spun.

 

[Chris Craig]

He understands those are all private entities and his order is useless right?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Dogs aren't limited by the constitution so we can say anything we want!

And we have the right to bear paws!

Fear us!

 

[Chris Craig]

But, he can't close twitter how will he whine to his base

Dogs with bear paws....damn

 

[MickZagger]

Such a snowflake

 

[MickZagger]

He’d never close down his main line of communicating/pissing matches

[THE HCP]

Any of his posse on here have an opinion on this?

 

[THE HCP]

I know MAGS is big in twitter, what's your opinion?

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I don't know what the order is.

However, if twitter is unilaterally deciding who is fact checked, what is fact checked and the sources used to fact checked, then they are considered publishers, and are liable for content published on the site.

 

[THE HCP]

I don't know what the order is.

Does it really matter? Don't you think there are some more pressing matters he should be dealing with right now?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I don't know what the order is.

2 Big Macs, large fry, and a twitter meltdown to go.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Does it really matter? Don't you think there are some more pressing matters he should be dealing with right now?

How can I know, when we don't know what the order is?

 

[Chris Craig]

He tries to shut down social media he will get destroyed in November

 

[andalusian]

Remember the old verbal joke about the war on poverty - fought by throwing stones at beggars?

Trump is literally fighting a war on truth.

Sad.

He tries to shut down social media he will get destroyed in November

He will be destroyed in November anyway.

 

[Road Ratt]

I will have to wait until tomorrow to see what Trump thinks he can do.

Trump's definition of small government is way too... small "hands on" for my tastes.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Any of his posse on here have an opinion on this?

Donald Trump is just trying to deflect from what's really going on. 100,000 deaths and he's pretty proud of that number.

 

[crandc]

So much for being against regulation.

[Chris Craig]

At his request my ass. They were investigating anyway

At his request my ass. They were investigating anyway

In a month NY will issue a shelter in place order, at his request.
