Twitter Flags Donald Trump Tweet About Flu and COVID as “Misleading,” Should Do the Same with His Abortion Claims

Share

Twitter has labeled has misleading Donald Trump’s tweet about COVID and the flu. They said: This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules about spreading misleading and potentially harmful information related to COVID-19. However, Twitter has determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible.

Twitter should do the same about Trump’s tweets concerning abortion. They are completely wrong and they are desperate. They’re the last gasps of a man without physical or emotional oxygen. If he thinks scaring his base about abortion in the last three weeks before the election is going to work, he’s wrong.

But can we get back to the discussion from last week please: no taxes paid?
