Former US President Donald Trump, known for his conservative attitude and controversial statements on many issues, has repeatedly come to the fore with the restriction or termination of his activity on Twitter. Twitter eventually shut down the account entirely because Trump’s posts were full of hateful and provocative glorifications of violence. Trump, on the other hand, recently launched a legal battle against these and similar decisions.
At the time of the permanent Twitter ban, Trump; He was banned from Instagram, Facebook, Twitch and even Snapchat. In response to this, Trump established a Twitter fake social media platform, which only survived for 1 month. The angry politician, who said “enough is enough” 9 months after these events, recently filed a lawsuit against Twitter.
They want their account reopened
Former US President Trump filed a lawsuit against Twitter last Friday in Florida. Because almost all of the social media platforms that Trump blocked belonged to Twitter. In the lawsuit filed for injunctive relief, it was alleged that Twitter violated the principles of the First Amendment.
In his filings, Trump stated that “Twitter, a major platform for public discourse and repressed by the current US Government,” censored him without question. Saying that Twitter’s impact on the country was huge, the former president demanded that his accounts be reopened.
The last straw was the January 6 raid.
The main reason why Trump was officially fired from social media platforms was that after the elections, Trump supporters could not accept the results and caused great outrage. The reason for this was cited as Trump’s provocative and hateful rhetoric on social media. Although his social media accounts were temporarily closed for the same reasons before, the riot events on January 6 ended Trump’s life on social media.
