Donald Trump Jr suspended from Twitter

Donald Trump Jr has managed to avoid going to prison until his father is out of office, but that isn’t enough to keep Junior out of Twitter jail. After he tweeted dangerously false information about the coronavirus, Twitter informed him that his account has been temporarily suspended.

Donald Trump Jr’s Twitter account is still visible, but he’s been suspended from tweeting or retweeting anything for a twelve hour period, according to an announcement made by one of his allies. This is notable because in some instances Twitter merely locks down a user’s account until they agree to delete a tweet with harmful false information. But in this instance, presumably due to Junior’s track record of tweeting false information, he’s been suspended outright.

We’ll see what Donald Trump Jr has to say for himself once his suspension is over. We expect it won’t be pretty. With him, it never is.
