from the official White House account, which had reposted Trump's tweet. Earlier this week, Twitter provided a link to facts about mail-in voting alongside two Trump tweets alleging, without evidence, that the process invites fraud.
"They’ve never added more context to his tweets before the tweet on mail balloting, and they’ve never shielded users from a tweet from Trump for glorifying violence before," said Brendan Nyhan, a Dartmouth College political science professor who has studied misinformation on social media.Until now,"they really have been the most laissez-faire of the platforms," Napoli said. But"this may be the new normal for them.
In response to Twitter's action on Friday, the White House's official Twitter account criticized the social media company, saying Trump's tweet discouraged violence and that Twitter is hypocritical because it allows"terrorists, dictators, and foreign propagandists to abuse its platform.
Experts say it's extremely unlikely that he will achieve his goal without congressional action, which is similarly unlikely despite a degree of bipartisan discontent with Facebook, Twitter and Google. In addition to the Communications Decency Act, the First Amendment likely protects the social media companies from a government crackdown on their editorial decisions, experts say.
