Washington DC, SAEDNEWS, Jan. 9: US President Donald Trump attempted to respond to his personal ban on Twitter through the official @POTUS handle, insisting he would not be “silenced” before the posts were immediately purged from the site.
The president took to his government Twitter account on Friday, hours after the platform permanently banned his own personal handle @realDonaldTrump, blasting the social media site for curtailing free speech while promoting “Radical Left” ideology.
A copy of the same statement was also sent to the White House press pool moments after Trump’s short-lived thread went out on Twitter.
Telling his followers to “stay tuned,” Trump also hinted that he would soon unveil a “big announcement,” adding that his team is negotiating with “various other sites” to move to, and that he was even considering “building out our own platform in the near future.” (Source: Russia Today)
