If Trump goes to Gab he can’t as easily show that Twitter did irreparable harm? If Trump builds the Gab platform and Gab takes a stance against other companies then it could look like Trump was abusing his government position for massive personal gain and to damage competitors.

Not a lawyer or anything just my thoughts as I’ve also wondered why he didn’t just use another platform. Could be he liked twitter for its large base from all over the political spectrum.

They don’t matter to Trump because there’s literally nothing worse they can say about him anymore. They character assassinated him more than any person in history, it seriously can’t get much worse than it is.

Fuck your optics, and fuck you. Fucking pussy.

This is some seriously bassakwards thinking...

So the POTUS can't use GAB because it shows favoritism; however, he must use Twatter exclusively.

Just who do you think kept Twatter a thing for the past 5 years?

And optics don't mean shit at this point.

That man could save a school bus full of drowning kids and the propaganda outlets would blame him for lax bussing regulations.

He should have gone there years ago when many of his supporters were being censored and banned. It would have been bumpy at first but what an impact it would have made.
