Trump Warns Twitter Is 'Making A Giant Mistake' By Restricting Conservative Voices
- 5 years ago
President Trump slammed Twitter on Sunday.
President Trump warned Twitter that it is "making a giant mistake" by keeping some conservatives off the platform.
"Twitter should let the banned Conservative Voices back onto their platform, without restriction," Trump tweeted Sunday. "It's called Freedom of Speech, remember. You are making a Giant Mistake!"
Trump tweeted about the matter last month as well, writing: "How can it be possible that James Woods (and many others), a strong but responsible Conservative Voice, is banned from Twitter? Social Media & Fake News Media, together with their partner, the Democrat Party, have no idea the problems they are causing for themselves. VERY UNFAIR!"
In an interview with CNN last year, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey admitted that his company has a "more left-leaning" bias though he also maintained that their policies are the same regardless of politics.
Dorsey said: "We realize that more and more people have fear of companies like ours."
"Are we doing something according to political ideology or viewpoints? We are not. Period," Dorsey also stated. "We do not look at content with regards to political viewpoint or ideology. We look at behavior."
