students with conservative views. “I think there
will be some form of equilibrium” between the
social media platforms and Americans who hold
right-of-center views, Charlie Kirk, the group’s
executive director, said Tuesday. “Hopefully
these companies can self-correct.”
“Voters will be constructing their choices for
2020” based largely on information from social
media, Kirk said.
Trump said last week on Fox News that Google,
Facebook and Twitter “are fighting me hard right
now, which is incredible because I think the
Democrats want to shut them up and, frankly, so
do a lot of the Republicans want to shut them up.”
Asked whether tech companies may be acting
illegally and whether the Justice Department
should determine that, Trump replied, “Well,
they could be and I don’t want to even say
whether or not they’re doing something, but I
will tell you, there are a lot of people that want
us ... to take action against Facebook and against
Twitter and, frankly, against Amazon.”
Trump told Fox Business Network’s Maria
Bartiromo last month that he doesn’t know
if what the companies are doing is illegal but
added, “I tell you what, they should be sued
because of what’s happening with the bias.”
