Trump condemns Twitter for silencing him and considers creating his own platform

---

The outgoing president of the United States , Donald Trump on Friday condemned Twitter's decision to permanently suspend his account on the social network and said he is considering creating his own platform to spread his messages without filters. They will not silence us! Trump exclaimed in a statement distributed by the White House after Twitter announced that it had permanently deprived him of his personal account on the social network. I predicted this would happen. We have been negotiating with several other sites, and we will have a big announcement soon, while also looking at the possibilities of building our own platform in the near future. The outgoing president said that Twitter has gone further and further in prohibiting freedom of expression and accused them of having coordinated with the Democrats and the radical left to delete his account. They have silenced me and you, the 75 million great patriots who voted for me, said Trump, who also complained about the protections that Twitter and other social networks enjoy which exempt them from legal consequences for what published by third parties on their websites. The Twitter move deprives Trump of his main megaphone, an account with which he has issued more than 55,000 messages for more than eleven years and which had 89 million followers. The social network temporarily suspended Trump's account for 12 hours this Wednesday, after the president justified in a tweet the assault on the Capitol by his sympathizers, which resulted in five deaths, at least thirteen police officers injured and all kinds of damage at the Legislative headquarters. Twitter later returned the account to him with the warning that any further violation of Twitter's rules would result in a permanent suspension, and this Friday, after analyzing Trump's last two tweets, he decided to take that extraordinary measure. "Following a careful review of recent tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the surrounding context, we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement to violence, Twitter said in a statement posted on its official blog.
