Months before President Donald Trump signed his May 28 executive order targeting social media platforms, the White House and members of the Trump family were debating how to battle the tech giants.
In an interview with Zenger News on February 28, the president’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., raised some of the arguments used against Google and Twitter—months before the president’s announcement and executive order.
Twitter, Google and others should lose federal protections, Trump Jr. said then, if they discriminate against conservatives by censoring, flagging, demonetizing or de-emphasizing their posts, videos or emails.
Sciuto put the burden on the Trump campaign to make sure the president’s potential donors and other supporters see its emails.
