Summon Twitter

President Trump filed a motion earlier this month calling for a federal judge to force Twitter to restore his account.

Twitter, previously said they would not remove posts from world leaders because of the ‘newsworthiness’ of their comments, which blocked Trump’s account nearly 10 months ago.

It seems like he wants to get it back.

The motion argue that Trump’s censorship should not be allowed, because the social media platform “exercises a degree of power and control over political discourse in this country that is immeasurable, historically unprecedented, and extremely dangerous to democratic debate.”
