He’s mad because they fact-checked him on one of his thousands of lies. Twitter is better than Facebook which has done nothing. They let Trump lie all the time.
Twitter has taken the unprecedented step of adding fact-check warnings to two of President Trump’s tweets. Why did Twitter act now, and how does it decide when to use such warnings?https://t.co/mUHEhZYxOB

Your regular reminder that much of the top performing content on social media is from right-wing media. If companies like Facebook are trying to “silence conservative voices,” they’re doing an incredibly lousy job. https://t.co/SNaELVDfmK

Twitter grants Trump every possible exception from its rules and offers a relatively mild corrective — a link to fact checks already on Twitter — and he responds as if they had deleted his tweets and terminated his account. https://t.co/DrbXlLwlII

"There are many reasons we pulled all our advertising from Twitter months ago, and clear political bias is one of them."#FactCheck: Twitter banned all political ads in 2019.
Even their response is a lie.
FWIW, the first link to a story that I see when I click on Twitter's fact-check is to The Hill, which is owned by Jimmy Finkelstein, a longtime friend of Trump's. https://t.co/Qt8RMvf49v

What are you going to do to punish @Twitter for simply warning its users that you're lying?
Tell everyone. We're listening. https://t.co/iyRasCr4D2
Twitter is like Susan Collins. https://t.co/lx2Jaf2DyC
