Since one man is going to single handedly rewrite how a POTUS delivers his message to the world.

No more alphabet fake news.

Straight to the people.

Twitter will soon be registered as a weapon on mass destruction.

I think Trump ends up leaving twitter at some point and moving to something more focused on freedom of speech like GAB.

I thought Twitter was talking about "suspending" his account.

lol Twitter's market cap would take a 25 percent beating at least if they were to suspend Trump. Trump is single handidly keeping Twitter in the conversation.

Twitter will eventually bow to pressure from media outlets to ban him so that he has to filter through them. It's also an ace in the sleeve for when they desperately need to embarrass him because he's going in dry on them

I think they're dumb enough to do it.

Sell

Twitter's been for sale for months with no offers. Its stock has been going down as well.

It depends on how bad he fricks with the Saudis.

Al Waleed is the biggest share holder.

twitter has had a hard time monetizing its users. Unlike facebook most twitter users are not casual users, and readily ignore the ads.

there are ads all over twitter, in a variety of forms. promoted tweets is definitely one of them.

plus I feel half of tweets are ads for something. and twitter doesn't know how to monetize them.

Twitter is replaceable, and already has negative retained earnings as a leading indicator about what will eventually happen to it as an independent entity.

I could be wrong though.

If twitter does that Trump should direct the NSA to do a month long ddos on them.

Not in the immediate term. Its 10+ years old and has a lot of users. And a ton of competitors.

Twitter is a perfect medium for trump, I don't see his method or style working as well on instagram/snapchat

The Twitter scares me. They don't make money, and I don't understand how they ever will. My fear is something replaces Twitter. I no likey Twitter to own. Probably missed out, but if I no understand, I no buy. I is a pretty simple guy.
