The United States President claimed that the ballots could be manipulated as some states are having increase access to postal voting to protect public health ahead of the November US election 2020 Poll.
Reacting to the fac-checks label, He tweeted: “Twitter is completely stifling FREE SPEECH, and I, as President, will not allow it to happen!” he tweeted.

Recently, Trump continuous capricious statements have been drawing many eyebrows, as he claimed that the micro-blogging platform is being used as a political tool by the Republicans.
The United States President wrote on Twitter that: “Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices.
”We will strongly regulate, or close them down before we can ever allow this to happen.”
He further wrote: ”We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can’t let a more sophisticated version of that.
”It would be a free for all on cheating, forgery and the theft of Ballots. Whoever cheated the most would win. Likewise, Social Media. Clean up your act, NOW!!!!”
