Trump Threatens To Shutdown Social Media Platforms

The United states President, Donald Trump has threatened to regulate or shutdown social media platforms after some of his tweets we’re tagged with warning by Twitter inc.

“Mail boxes will be robbed, ballots will be forged & even illegally printed out & fraudulently signed,” Mr Trump wrote in one of these tweets.

Under the tweets, there is now a link reading β€œGet the facts about mail-in ballots” that guides users to a Twitter β€œmoments” page with fact checks and news stories about Trump’s unproved claims.

This particular link directs users to a separate page filled with news articles and tweets from journalists and experts proving parts of the president’s claims to be false.

Trump then replied in an early morning posts on Twitter, saying: β€œRepublicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices. We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen.”
