So lemme get this straight - you have a problem with Trump "controlling" his own Twitter account? Seriously? Who should control it, if not him? Do you control your own eccie account? Would you give up control if I decided your posts make me uncomfortable?No you are missing the point. If we all receive are information from Trump's twitter account he can control what we are told. That is state run media. That is not how a free society work. He can control what he type, it is just we should not take it as gospel.
Think before you post!
The media love Trump. He gives them red meat every day. Good for their ratings. Originally Posted by lustylad

Hahahaha... please listen to yourself.Hey Junior, do you think it's fair that the people are being denied access to information by its government?
Did you complain that Obama "can control what we are told" when he used a twitter account or the White House bully pulpit? Now that he is President, Trump can continue to use his twitter account or the White House website or hold a press conference to get his message across. Just as Obama could and did. How is that all of a sudden a threat to our free society?
Of course he can control what he types into his twitter account! That's his First Amendment right! Do you want to take away his right to speak his mind just because: 1) he's now President and 2) you find his message to be less agreeable than Obama's message?
