They're Private Companies!

    Trump has announced his lawsuits against what he calls "Big Tech".  Despite being a Republican, which is supposed to be the party that defends business, Trump is turning against the Conservative base.

Not long after the initiation of Trump's litigation, the Biden Administration, seeing that Trump has made a mistake, has joined onto the feeding frenzy against Big Business.  The Democrats see an opportunity to attack Capitalism, as the most popular Republican politician, and ex-businessman, has started down that road.

It's too bad that Americans have to fight both parties on this issue.  But our main argument is clear:

They're private companies!  If one doesn't like the actions of Twitter, Facebook, and Google, just don't use them.  There are other, less popular alternatives.  And, if those Mega-Cap Social Media Titans make enough people unsatisfied, the economic opportunity to create more, alternative (and, possibly more inclusive) competitors grows.

I have to admit that I thought Trump was setting himself up to produce a new Social Media site.  But instead, he sold out his position on Capitalism and Big Business.

It's not too late for Trump to back down from his lawsuits.  I really hope he abandons them and refocuses on his Maga Social Media business.
