To the degree FB and Twitter receive ad revenue based on posting volume, banning Trump is shooting their revenue in the foot ... or maybe knee capping it. Trump will find other means to bypass the MSM's and social media giants' blocks. FB, Twitter, and many MSM outlets will struggle, possibly fail, at trying to regain post volume and revenue from banning/blocking Trump.

FB's, Twitter's, and many MSM outlets' suppression and derision of the lab leak theory probably isn't playing well now that they've been proven probably wrong and partisan-motivated.

I dunno why the primitives are all agog and excited, jumping up-and-down getting red-white-blue in the face, spitting and sputtering in glee; I thought this was old news.

If it in fact is new news, I'd just automatically thought it'd happened a long time ago.

Should we point out that this could happen to anyone?  Naw, **** ‘em. They’re too stupid to understand.

Since Trump is an R leader and a potential candidate for office he should file a complaint with the Federal Election Commission that this is an in-kind contribution to the Dem party worth millions of $$.

Yeah, it is always more enjoyable to watch the look on their faces when the monster they created comes home and eats one of their own.  Like when #metoo feasted on Al Franken's carcass with its zero tolerance acolytes chanting "misogynist".  Good times, good times.

Is it too early to announce he is running?

Considering that CNN and PMSNBC's ratings are in the crapper post-Trump, at least it would give them something to cover that might draw eyeballs.

The same group of morons who constantly scream suppression when the Republicans try to prevent voter fraud have no problem when the speech their opposition is suppressed.

The suspension was indefinite, then FB said indefinite bans didn't fit their practices and said they would make a final decision later.  Later came late last week when the two years was announced.  As has been noted already, two years just happens to keep Trump of FB during those midterm elections.  Coincidence?  :rofl:  If anyone thinks so, I've got some ocean front property for sale cheap, close to Las Vegas.

Good thinking! Then he should sue their ass off.
