​Commentary: Twitter may have just helped Trump get re-elected

CNA Online

Twitter has begun labelling US President Donald Trump’s tweets: “Unsubstantiated”. “Glorifies violence”. Trump retaliated with an executive order threatening broad legal immunity for the content that we users post. While Trump may not win his latest battle to change Twitter, he may succeed in a broader strategy to cast himself as a victim of biased Big Tech, says Mark Cenite, Associate Dean (Undergraduate Education) at the College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences at NTU. Twitter’s labels may even help Trump get re-elected, he added.
