President Trump may have to resort to opening a MySpace account to be ‘online’ – because the man can not get bandwidth anywhere else at the moment … not even on Shopify.
DT has been banned from a handful of social media apps and social networking sites far beyond Twitter and Facebook / Instagram – which launched him earlier this week after they said he used their platforms to carry out a violent uprising on the US Capitol to hit.
Since then, even more companies have taken steps to keep their pages Trump-free, including some you never thought would use the Prez, whether to post or consume it.
Among those who blocked / restricted Trump and / or Trump content – Pinterest (for #StoptheSteal items), Shopify (for MAGA and other related merchandise), Twitch (no more Trump live streams), Snapchat (gone Trump’s account), Reddit (the r / The_Donald thread is dead) and even TikTok (who was Trump try to ban himself, ironically).
Remember, Twitter the plug permanently pulled on Trump’s Twitter account – his go-to platform for the past few years – quotation further potential calls for violence, directly or indirectly … this after Trump’s 12-hour suspension expired, and he tweeted to his ‘patriots’ again.
Twitter’s move to start him forever is also coming to Facebook / Instagram did something similar … suspend his account indefinitely, at least until Bidens inauguration was done.
We believe that the risks of allowing President Trump to use our service during this period are simply too great, so we are expanding the block we posted on his Facebook and Instagram account indefinitely and for at least the next two weeks out. pic.twitter.com/JkyGOTYB1Z

There’s one place Trump could possibly turn to to get his vote back on the internet – Parler (a social networking site / app that uses extreme right) is still open to business … but it’s also at risk of being blacklisted available in mainstream app stores.
Google has already completely genixed it – which means you can no longer download it if you are an Android user – but Apple has not yet done so. On Friday, they gave Parler a 24-hour deadline to give stricter guidelines on regulating jobs … but it’s still available.
