Boo hoo hoo

The whiner in chief can’t stand being off twitter:

Former president Donald Trump has asked a court to mandate that Twitter restore his social media account.

In a filing late Friday, Trump asked a federal district judge for a preliminary injunction enabling his return to Twitter while his lawsuit against the social media giant continues.

“Plaintiff Donald J. Trump respectfully moves for a preliminary injunction directing, inter alia, Defendant Twitter, Inc. and all persons acting in concert with Defendant, to reinstate Plaintiff’s access to Defendant’s social media platform(s),” the filing said.

It argued that Twitter was “censoring” Trump by indefinitely banning him from the platform, adding that the company “exercises a degree of power and control over political discourse in this country that is immeasurable, historically unprecedented, and profoundly dangerous to open democratic debate.”

The filing also argued that Twitter had suspended Trump’s account after being “coerced” by his political rivals in Congress.

Twitter banned Trump from its platform on Jan. 8, stating that two of his tweets had violated the company’s policies and citing “the risk of further incitement of violence.” The unprecedented move came after the riot on Jan. 6 in which hundreds of Trump’s supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in an attack that resulted in five deaths and left about 140 police officers injured.

Trump’s office did not immediately respond to a request from The Washington Post for comment early Saturday. Twitter declined to comment.

What a little baby. Give him a bottle and put him to bed.

By the way, his official “spokeswoman” Liz Harrington has a tweeter feed and she tweets out everything he says. Nobody cares.

His blog failed too. Just saying.
