It is baffling that people think a person should be permanently banned from access to any "public forum", which Twitter has become.
To the people deriding Trump, you do recognize that no actual criminals are prevented from excersing speech? Even if you believe he is a criminal, the law of this country does not agree. You dislike him, great. You don't get to remove everything that you disagree with from a public forum.
To the ideologues believing that Republicans are destroying 'democracy', recall that this country is a constutional republic and the reason is because pure democracy, or majority rule, degrades to mob rule. To not make the mistake of equating freedom with democracy.
Not all votes are equal! What blasphemy! Not all people are engaged, informed and care about preserving the sovereignty of the nation. We have a system designed to keep those people from destroying our liberty.
The system allows the people to pick representatives who are sworn by oath to act as an informed and engaged agent on their behalf.
Our duty is to try our best to pick those agents that will put aside their interests and live by their oath.
