    1. @RSPainter I feel th same about democrats, cities r burning in Democrat cities & it’s trumps fault, GTFO

    2. @Vivian Stimpson What about rioters? They r criminals hurting th public not innocent bystanders. Ur so deluded

    3. @DAMIEN KOYAnd where’s the evidence for anything that u just said. I know that minnesota is democrat state, but that doesn’t mean everyone believes in one side. Besides, the people are taking advantage of the riot, not because they are left, why bring up politics in this case?

    4. @DAMIEN KOY I could say the same for protest for reopening the country when it’s not safe. They are all trump supporters. So therefore, you can’t judge them by what side they are on.

    1. Thomas Cothran It really is every time. Not a day goes by without him lying about something, to play the idiots that support him.

    2. ​@Thomas Cothran Lol argument? It’s a fact.
      Conald is a pathological liar. One one cares about your feeling buttercup.

    3. Rachel Ash So now you’re making up things and calling them “facts”? It’s okay, though. Nobody cares about your feelings, right?

    1. @Kellz And oh my wouldn’t the billionaires care… stocks are the con trump is playing on you. Nobody really cares except the lazy people hoping to get rich doing nothing.

  1. This is one of the statements that gives permission to start shooting except he rephrased it to sound like a threat or warning.

    1. @Muhammad Farhan Nobody pray for US anymore actually. Only 2.5 years, they have totally changed to a terrible country. God do not bless them anymore. So sad. No any American can avoid responsibility to the consequence.

    2. It was funny, not anymore during this pandemic. I want Trump out of office. He’s wasting resources. Good things could be done with the large pile of US money that’s taxed from the citizens. He’s a child who can’t take criticism, egoist, and does not solve problems. All problems that he “solved” are the ones he created in the first place.

    1. Freedom of Speech? Oh wait, I forgot democrats gave up pretending to care about that. Nm, enjoy your TDS echo chamber.

    2. @Chris Hewitt It’s hard to tell the difference between Liberals and Those that want to burn this Country to the ground.

      Trump 2020 🇺🇲

    3. @Chris Hewitt Twitter is a private company – they make their own rules as to what you can, and cannot, say on their platform, it’s in their TOS. Don’t like it? Then don’t use it! 1st Amendment rights are not in question here.

    1. Trump was talking about the shootings last night by the thug rioters, and the liberal fake news media twists it as Trump telling cops to murder people in the street. Idiots. Ignore the important news of people getting killed during the riots and make it about Trump meaning something he never actually said? Fake News as usual. Sad how people still allow themselves to be brainwashed by it.

    2. @Bryan McNair i can understand that happening i would do the same thing If I was in my shop and they started lueting the shop

    3. @Redman, and I thought he meant to kill the people that looting.
      I only read his email, didn’t listen the news.

  2. But yet, you’re fighting to have a political cartoon taken off the internet because it hurts your feelings? Please be consistent in your advocacy for the 1st Amendment, Mr. President.

    1. Sandy Allen Indecency is often shunned. If you condone racism, you are promoting inhumanity and will be shunned as a result. Serial killers are equally unpopular.

  3. Imagine being held accountable for something you say on the internet, then crying about it. Trump is the softest President in American history.

    1. @Super Slash if we get into a war with china there are only 2 outcomes if we win we pretty much own the world if we lose china will conquer the world.

    2. @Steve Beaty could mean a few things, depending on how often you call people Russian Bots Or if you know how much money was spent buy Russians around $250,000 and that Trump and Clinton spent 81 million combined.

    3. @Christien du Preez ….what republican tweets have they erased? …..they called out trump for lying. ….big difference

    4. @buddy guy The Russian Intelligence Agency spent $1.25M per month in the last months before the election (info: Mueller report and DoJ indictments). True… it was still less then Hillary’s expenses. (You can’t count Trumps and Hillarys together. You count Hillarys vs Trump+Russia, as Putin’s work were either for Trump or for creating division. Also you have to count the expenses of pro-Trump information pushed by organizations like NRA… and we all know NRA received huge donations from Russia.)
      But you ruskies were smart… Didn’t spent so much on ads, but your bots and trolls (and others) managed to share the ads for free quite extensive if you compare to what Hillary’s campaign managed with money. Also “stealing” (or rather FB messing up and giving it away) very private information about a massive amount of American citizens also helped… also using AI and specialists in psychological warfare to create and target ads and misinformation to specific groups of people. That information would be worth quite much.
      I admit, Putin is a master at psychological warfare. And the US military were quite useless in recognizing and protecting people from such disinformation. Hillary and the Democrats (and actually the Government too) weren’t aware of this propaganda war, and wouldn’t have been smart enough to fight it.
      And still the US military is quite useless, as Trump and the GOP refused funding Pentagon when they asked for funds for strengthening such a defense. If you win the minds of men, you don’t need super carriers and stealth bombers. Twitter perhaps now doing what Pentagon and the US education system should have done a long time ago: fighting disinformation with information.

  4. GOOD for Twitter but you should have done that a LONG TIME AGO!!! EVERYTHING that comes out of his mouth is a Straight up LIE .. So be MORE Vigilant, Please!!!

    1. Southern Charm
      They lie!
      Not only do they ingest the TV Corporate news media and their Chinese propaganda, but they also mindlessly believe the propaganda and repeat the propaganda. Nobody could be that stupid, yet here they are.

      Progressives say –
      Russia-gate debunked

    2. Twitter is a social media platform that is supposed to uphold free speech otherwise they should lose their protections. Twitter has now been manipulating information and censoring certain people and fact checking certain people while allowing those they have personal bias towards to say and do anything they want. Selective fact checking and selective censorship and pushing political agendas is not what a social media organization should be doing. They are now behaving like liberal biased publishers, which means they should lose their protections and be held liable for anything said wrong on their platform. Either fact check all sides equally as a non biased publisher of information, or don’t meddle with free speech at all. That’s the reality of it, and Trump was right to do it. You cannot allow millions of people to say Trump is a Russian spy for years and let all Democrats call him a traitor and criminal for years and push all this false information that has now been debunked for years, and then suddenly decide to censor conservatives and Trump or label his words a certain way when you ignored all the rest on the other side, which in reality is far worse and far more deserving of fact checking. It’s not that hard to understand for any logical non biased person who just wants unfiltered unbiased information and a platform for free speech. Twitter will be held accountable for everything they allow to be said that is inaccurate on either side, or they can stop using biased selective reasoning to censor people against their agenda, and let it all be true free speech. Take your pick.

  5. He must be livid, someone is actually holding him accountable, and telling him what to do.

    1. It sure wouldn’t be his old republican cronies that will stop him. They are shaking in their Ferragamos.

    1. Yeah, charging you money for a product that you willing give them in exchange for a service you want is exactly the same as smashing a Target and stealing a TV

    2. @Ramjambammam Dude No, it is not the same, but lobbying to get laws passed to make the common folks poorer while they get richer is.

    3. Jorge Rodriguez Name an example. And then present your position why it is relevant and comparable here.

  6. The problem with this level of military escalation is that it will be indiscriminate…they won’t handle looters differently from protesters.

    1. That’s Dumpie’s plan. He has been fanning these flames for decades. He and Putin want our country on fire, and as usual, nobody has stopped them.

  7. Amazing how fast he responded to Twitter and how slow he responded to the pandemic. Shows his priorities. Not us the American people but his man baby priorities.

    1. @Gnorts Mr Alien Glad you asked I can disprove he doesn’t care about the American people easily. Working for free, prison reform, veterans rights, military raises, crushed the horrific transpacific and iran deal, removed us from the WHO, abolished ISIS, brought jobs back, created jobs….I could do this all day. Careful what you ask for lol!

    2. @felix u wait nice try. First a hoax, then a plot to get him out, then 1 case, then 15 cases. Travel ban still allowed 40,000 Chinese to enter, now 100,000 deaths. Still a hoax i guess.

  8. As the Gladiator told the Emperor: “The time of honoring yourself will soon be at an end.”

    1. That’s perfect. Thank you hit the spot. Wouldn’t be so bad but he has gotten away with just about everything. Boy Moscow mitch and Barr better get to covering things up for him because their emperor has NO CLOTHS. VOTE BLUE SAVE AMERICA WE ARE DIEING LITERALLY DIEING FROM COVID 45.

  9. Somebody Smart: “He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool. Shun him.”

    1. Better to be silent and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

      2020 update..
      Better to stay off Twitter and be thought a moron in chief than to tweet incessantly and remove all doubt

  10. The thugs were the cops who killed or stood by and watched a human being shocked to death. No tweet from 45 about that huh.
