Our Border Patrol agents are superheroes dealing with the border crisis every day. They are doing their job, and it's time for Democrats to allow Congress to do ours. pic.twitter.com/z5LbU7heQI— Rep. Doug Collins (@RepDougCollins) May 31, 2019
This tweet was posted on May 31, the day after Trump announced the tariffs on Mexico that he didn't impose on June 7th.
Trump retweeted it today. And the question is: why?
Oh, and:
Twitter should let the banned Conservative Voices back onto their platform, without restriction. It’s called Freedom of Speech, remember. You are making a Giant Mistake!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 9, 2019
No, it's not. Even on licensed fora, like TV stations, try exercising your freedom of speech by speaking like you did to Access Hollywood. Or just going on the local news to declaim racist and xenophobic ideas. "Freedom of speech" only applies to the government. Here's a hint: "Congress shall make no law....abridging the freedom of speech...."
Twitter is not Congress; although you treat them roughly the same way.
