Opinion | Ashley Pratte: 'The president — any president — should be above using the office of the presidency and the American government to target these private sector companies he views as his political enemies.' - NBCNewsTHINK
The problem, of course, has repeatedly come when the president is the source of that misinformation — which, if it happened in other countries, would be called unacceptable propaganda.
It would behoove the president to recognize that private companies such as Twitter and Facebook have the right to flag content that spreads false data or misinformation that could potentially be harmful to Americans if it were to become viral — and that it's better than them becoming arbiters of his intent, which is what his critics want, and what his previous attempts to regulate social media would make the FCC or FTC become.
It would also behoove him to drop this because the very social media platforms and tech giants the president rails against have been his biggest campaign tools and, if he turns his followers against him or cause them to abandon the platforms, he’s not going to have the same soapbox on another platform or get the same reaction he’s used to receiving when he tweets something absurd.to target these private sector companies he views as his political enemies.
