What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

Facebook upholds Trump ban.

I don't get this. Surely Trump has staff people, his kids, and tons of fans who can say whatever he wants said on Facebook. Why does it matter if he is "banned"? But then maybe I am not sure how the ban works. Maybe even a "friends of Trump" would be banned I don't know.

I know his favorite use of his time as President was to post endlessly on twitter on the American People's time but most politicians do not post personally on social media right?

Facebook did not uphold a ban today which is probably what leads to your confusion.

Unlike Sauron, he doesn't want a Mouth of Trump.

I was just speculating on the purpose of banning politicians in general.

And that goes to the problem I was referring to that is masked by Yi's simplistic take on it.  Facebook has tried to offload the decision to keep their hands clean of the controversy.   The body they thought would take on the decision put it back in Facebook's court.  Now Facebook has to answer the difficult question you have posed.

they ban the account name.

Trump could create another account called Melania Trump and write under her name, Facebook, Twitter&co would not interfere as long as he doesn't sign "Donald Trump, real POTUS" even if it was evident it came from him.

That's true for you or I.

For Trump they would ban him.  I know Twitter did when he tried to post fro a couple of different accounts.

I read some of the transcripts of the Giuliani phone call.  You know when this would have come in handy?  The impeachment.

I think it would really convince many of the skeptics on the GOP side of the aisle.

I bet they would have voted for Trump even if had been caught on tape saying something truly unforgivable and offensive, like saying he grabs women by the pussy just because he is rich and get away with it.  Or mocking the war dead for being suckers and idiots for enlisting instead of dodging the draft like smart people do.  Of course even Trump would never do such outrageous things but I bet even if he did I bet  people would still vote for him.

However, I suspect the NYPD would arrest him if he shot someone on 5th Ave.

but he would still be loved by Republicans, probably even more if a shot a black dude saying he was a criminal.
