VIDEO : Why Did Twitter Ban This Trump Video?
Something strange is going on in Twitter-land. This short Donald Trump video, where Trump rails against special interests, is embedded in a tweet can be seen only if you know the url or are following someone who has retweeted the video.
For reasons unknown, this tweet is NOT on Donald Trump’s Tweet stream timeline and thus has much fewer retweets and likes than the average Trump video that is often shared 6-10k+ times.
The Establishment and special interests are absolutely killing our country. Stop them now: https://t.co/cLUCrZ2hdehttps://t.co/zUmuW5WPrk

Trump Supporters noticed and recognized that it appears Twitter may be “Shadow Banning” this tweet – a form of censorship where content is blocked from the user’s timeline and/or search results.
.@realDonaldTrump This tweet does not show up in Mr Trump’s feed! Everyone retweet!

Is this just a technical glitch or is Twitter, known for it’s liberal executive leadership, trying to stop the Trump movement through secretive and nefarious means?
