Trump has a libel suit against Twitter? What’s the basis?

Being a private company does not make you immune from laws and precedents.
If he issues an executive order legally defining platform vs. publisher and orders it’s enforcement, he is not a dictator and has effectively dumpsterd every liberal social media outlet

The libel suit comes after he defines them as a publisher.

If he removes their protections for operating outside the scope of what they are supposed to be doing then he is rolling back government.

Because platforms are silencing him and his followers? Who really is the dictator here?

How is he a dictator? Cite one example. Just one. One teeny tiny example of Donald J. Trump, president of the United States of America being a dictator.
And don't give us this crap about "executive order". Obama's entire presidency was one executive order after another. And it still isn't being a dictator
I could give you an example but you seem to preemptively refuse to head it. Muh Obama did too!! Ok and Obama spied on him, should Trump do the same to Biden? Obama sent a pallet of cash to Iran, should Trump do that too? Abandoning your principles....

I’ll bet he tries to re-define some terms in Section 230 of the CDA

Does Trump own that platform?

If Trump and the FCC decide so, they could declare it a utility and then Google and Facebook couldn’t do shite without following government regs.

Looks like BoarEd will be back to annoy the Q-Tards soon

How is Twitter silencing him?

Hell no you mental midget. If they are benefiting as a platform then they need to act like one and not a publisher with editorial review. The internet needs to be neutral but they haven’t acted that way for over a decade.

If you ask this, you'll never get it.

Not yet
Did you even read what Tig and Boosie said?

Silencing views you don’t like and promoting views you support falls under “publishing”, not platforming.

Damn dude how about you at least wait to melt until you know what the actual order is

Name something as pervasive and influential in America as social media.
Posted on 5/27/20 at 5:47 pm to Contra
Jack will ban him from twitter and he will lose his platform. I’m sure the MSM want that to happen.

Still, what is the libel? His words were not deleted or altered. There is no defamation or slander by a fact check.
