Donald J. Trump's voice on his favorite medium, Twitter - has been brought to cease; Twitter has permanently suspended President's account for violating company's rules after he reportedly incited violence that led to insurrection on Capitol Building on January 6.
One of his last tweets stated: “The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!” giving an insight he might be returning in another shape or form.
Shortly thereafter, he tweeted this: “To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th” for which Twitter decided it was a security breach. Twitter, by suspending Donald Trump's account, demonstrated a strong editorial conviction about doing something that will keep the thin layer of a very fragile social peace intact.
The company added that there has to be a more meaningful public conversation about how we think about Tweets from world leaders on Twitter service. This is why the process for reviewing reported Tweets from these accounts is crucial.
Twitter thereby stated:
1. President Trump’s statement that he will not be attending the Inauguration is being received by a number of his supporters as further confirmation that the election was not legitimate and is seen as him disavowing his previous claim made via two Tweets (1, 2) by his Deputy Chief of Staff, Dan Scavino, that there would be an “orderly transition” on January 20th
2. Tweet may also serve as encouragement to those potentially considering violent acts that the Inauguration would be a “safe” target, as he will not be attending
3. The use of the words “American Patriots” to describe some of his supporters is also being interpreted as support for those committing violent acts at the US Capitol.
Journalist CJ Werleman in an interview with N1's Ika Ferrer Gotić said: “He will be back. And it doesn't have to be today or tomorrow, but his deranged base of 75 million is enough reason for him to return.”
Werleman also continued pointing out the dangerous precedent in American presidential history of leading a so-called “Twitter government”.
For now, Trump's 88-million audience will now have to hear from him in a more old-fashioned way; by e-mail that will be sent to one of the official accounts of the American government. But, before posting them, the tweets will have to be reviewed.
