Are you for real? There's no such thing as a moral right to have other people listen to you. That's not an idea a serious person would hold, especially regarding a social media platform.

The only thing more aggravating than the fact that journalists give any credence to that buffoon is that there are otherwise intelligent people who trust him to manage their wealth. He has zero commitment to empiricism.

This is maybe the one redeeming quality of Trump: more than half the county is quite certain he's a liar who will lie about everything, including war. It was not the case with W. We were maybe ~10%, max 20%, of the country. The protests were much lonelier.
