Trump Calls on MAGA Faithful to Permanently Cancel Facebook, Twitter

'Twitter is a disgrace to democracy... '

Twitter and Facebook’s anti-free speech attacks on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., led former President Donald Trump to call on the nation to “drop off of Facebook and Twitter,” NewsBusters reported.

“Everybody should drop off of Twitter and Facebook,” Trump said in a statement. “They’re boring, have only a Radical Left point of view, and are hated by everyone. They are a disgrace to our Nation.”

Twitter permanently banned Greene for posting so-called COVID-19 misinformation, and then Facebook followed Twitter the next day with a 24-hour ban.

“A post violated our policies and we have removed it; but removing her account for this violation is beyond the scope of our policies,” Aaron Simpson said in a statement according to Politico.

Twitter banned Trump’s account after the January 6 Capitol riot in a direct corporate assault on a sitting American president’s right to free speech.

“Twitter is a disgrace to democracy. They shouldn’t be allowed to do business in this Country,” Trump said. “Marjorie Taylor Greene has a huge constituency of honest, patriotic, hard-working people. They don’t deserve what’s happened to them on places like low-life Twitter and Facebook.”

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy failed to defend Greene, though he stated that “any speech that does not fit Big Tech’s orthodoxy gets muzzled.”

“House Republicans will be ready to take action that protects Americans when they express their constitutionally safeguarded views,” he said, “just like we have laws on the books today that prohibit discrimination by corporations in many other contexts.”

Trump’s call for conservatives to abandon the far-left social media platforms came the same day that former Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., resigned his seat in Congress to lead the Trump Media & Technology Group.

Trump’s new technology company plans to launch a social media platform dedicated to free speech.

But he has to compete with several well-established competitors, including Gab, GETTR, and Parler.

Podcaster Joe Rogan gave GETTR a major boost when he joined the platform after Twitter banned Dr. Robert Malone, the mRNA vaccine inventor who became red-pilled on everything from COVID-19 to the Great Reset.
