Depends if he broke their terms and conditions for posting? Then he’s only got himself to blame.

I dont think so. I reckon it is more about favourism of who they want to win more then the other as well. |

Anyone contravening the easy to understand, clearly set out guidelines for what is acceptable has only themselves to blame..
If it was a golf club the point is still the same and its nothing to do with democracy.. |

Still, they shouldnt take sides, it should be a same level playing field, to me it seems they see trump as a threat as he is not a globalist. |

Trump wasn't supposed to win the 2016 election, it was meant to be Hilary who would carry on the work of fellow globalists Bush snr, Bill Clinton, Bush jr, Obama to bring in the nwo.
The mainstream news media, Facebook, Twitter are all globalist owned.
That's why they are all against Trump and will do anything to remove him. |

Why shouldn't they take sides, why should it be a level playing field?
There are no laws on the behaviour of companies providing an application as a service (note, private companies, providing a service, much like a bar). Their play ground, their rules essentially.
That being said, he has repeatedly broken those rules and been let off. He only has himself to blame on that front.

But he didn't "win". He got less votes than Clinton. So how is that Democracy?
The Electoral College system means that in some cases the candidate winning the popular vote (i.e. getting more votes) loses out. This is due to large less populated (more rural) states get a disproportionate amount of voting power... |

"Foreign politics.
Who cares?"
If it was in Uzbekistan or some tiny African country then yeah most don't but its not..
However the poll goes in the states has an influence on us both domestically and because of who it's about also possibly internationally.. |

Nope, it's mostly been a rubber stamp. Only twice has the Electoral College gone against the popular vote.
Both times in favour of Republicans. |

Private businesses are at liberty to create and change their contractual terms that users must accept. They are free to suspend and restrict services of course as they are not governments removing peoples citizenship.
Trump seems to have very lax restrictions on his behaviour from fb. That's enough for me to not have interest in their services. |

That is right they are that is why it is so important trump wins as he is the only one that speaks out against them  |

Surely both sides have to play the same rules and system. I'm not a fan of trump or the American system but if that's there rules you have to abide by them |

Whether Twitter etc removes accounts, people will know who they want to vote for regardless by reading the policies for that candidate.
We have seen what happens when the media start to try to influence people's decisions and it doesn't work, people rebel. |

Yes. I actually think that what the media is doing will make him even more popular so in a way it could work against them. |

That's what worked against them in the last election. Along with shoddy polling statistics that were used to try and influence the way in which people voted.
Just a quick question also, if countries aren't allowed to meddle in other countries elections or try to influence voters (even though this seems very lax given the past 3-5 years elections either side of the pond). And I understand fb and twitter etc are public entities, but should they be allowed to have people in influential positions comment or give opinions knowing that there is a good chance this may influence they way some people vote. |
