    Except that’s just factually wrong, as even a basic understanding of linear time (let alone a simple fact check) would have determined. Donald Trump was banned from most platforms on January 7th and 8th in 2021. When DONALD TRUMP WAS PRESIDENT, not Joe Biden.

    It’s still funny when MAGA butches about something, And then it turn out trump was president when it happened.

      I actually think this point is fairly weak. The inauguration of Biden was so imminent that one could easily imagine coercion happening based on the imminent force of government Biden would soon possess.

      I’m not saying that did happen but it’s conceivable that it could.
