Trump, without evidence, accuses Google of illegally swinging election against him in 2020
by Jesse Pound CNBC
In tweets, Trump lists evidence-free accusations by several people, including Faux News host Lou Dobbs and former (disgruntled and fired, now seeking fame) Google employee eKevin Cernekee, that the tech company has an anti-conservative bias.
President Donald Trump criticized Google on Tuesday morning, insinuating that the tech company may be working against his reelection campaign and saying “we are watching Google very closely.”
In a series of tweets, Trump listed baseless accusations by several people, including Fox News host Lou Dobbs and former Google employee Kevin Cernekee, that the tech company has an anti-conservative bias...
There’s no evidence that Google manipulates information to stifle conservative voices.

President Trump late Tuesday night responded to criticism from former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-Texas), who has repeatedly assailed the president following a mass shooting in El Paso, Texas.
"Beto (phony name to indicate Hispanic heritage) O’Rourke, who is embarrassed by my last visit to the Great State of Texas, where I trounced him, and is now even more embarrassed by polling at 1% in the Democrat Primary, should respect the victims & law enforcement — & be quiet!" Trump tweeted.
In response to Trump's tweet, O'Rourke said, "22 people in my hometown are dead after an act of terror inspired by your racism. El Paso will not be quiet and neither will I." https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/456479-trump-tells-orourke-he-should-be-quiet-in-wake-of-el-paso-shooting
As for mocking people, because of their given names:
Donald Trump's ancestors changed their surname from "Drumpf" to "Trump."
Donald’s grandfather was a German immigrant named Frederick Drumpf who emigrated to the U.S. in 1885 and became a naturalized citizen in 1892.
At some point, he started calling himself “Frederick Trump,” but it is unclear if he ever changed his name officially. Some have speculated that he didn’t want to be known as “Drumpf” because of prevailing prejudice against Germans (which would heighten, of course, during World War I). https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/donald-drumpf/
Trump says "BE QUIET!"
