(1,009 posts)I am shocked they banned him. I actually reported him this morning (Im sure a lot of people did). I figured its worth a shot. Twitter has been much more accommodating the past couple weeks with banning.
I wonder if they ban by ip address, and whether he'll show up on some other account.

Ask @realDonaldTrump

I'm not rooting for the guy, but I think it's pretty hard to "ban" somebody. It's not a private club.
Just sayin'

Doesn't matter anyway. He's up and running from 2 other twitter accounts.

(19,186 posts)bulbous head tattooed on his stomach now? He can have a rogues gallery of impeached Republican presidents all over his body. That's always a big ice-breaker at parties. The women LOVE that kind of stuff too. He's be a real 'chick' magnet.

(62,380 posts)good to see that name again.
Yeah I can get dark sometimes. Life should be fairly simple, but money and power make us all suffer.

(10,418 posts)Thanks for thinking of me. I was raising some hell here a couple of days ago. I'm probably lucky not to be timed out right now or whatever it is that they do to you here when you slip the restraints and run free for a while.
I was on Facebook for a couple of months checking in on all the insanity going on over there and about ended up in a straight jacket myself. So, yeah. Good times.
Seriously, it's good to be back here talking with you all. I might sound a little crazy sometimes, but that's par for the course for me.

(21,600 posts)Coincidentally, a staunch Republican acquaintance of mine was banned from Twitter a few days ago for something similar.
No threats (as far as I know); but lots of very petty, personal attacks against Democratic figures.
Good to see Twitter is tamping down on right-wing hissy fits.
