These are very good examples, but we just witnessed an even better one: Trump has been, for all practical purposes, entirely silenced, simply because Twitter deplatformed him.


Because he didn't go anywhere else. He could have joined Parler or Gab and continued drawing attention.


He did, and is.

Just because you only pay attention to mainstream (D) media doesn't mean he's not on others.


Donald Trump did not join Parler or Gab.

edit: should have done my own research better, the profile reads:

>Reserved for the 45th President of the United States of America🇺🇸 This account is an uncensored Twitter archive and shares email statements sent by The Office of Donald J. Trump.

AFAIK Trump isn't on gab.


Trump spoke at CPAC. Press covered it.
