President Trump angrily ranted about Twitter (on Twitter, as usual), implying it was a threat to national security and expressing the desire to change the laws in order to shut it down.

Talk about a landslide. Joe Biden has become the first president to surpass 80 million votes. That’s partly because this past election saw a turnout of some 66%, breaking a nearly century-old record.

The 75 million Americans who voted for Joe Biden are celebrating their victory, but they’re also growing increasingly worried of what Donald Trump is going to do as he leaves office.

Twitter’s longtime feud with Donald Trump may be nearly over. If Trump loses the election, then he will no longer be protected from a permanent ban. That means if he continues to violate Twitter’s policies, he could be permanently banned.
