Donald Trump today said he was suing the top officials of Facebook and Twitter for keeping him off social media.
If he follows through, Trump's chances of success in court are slim at best, legal analysts said; Facebook and Twitter are private companies with the right to moderate their platforms.
Trump accused those companies of violating First Amendment free speech rights through "censorship" against him and others, "blacklisting" and "canceling" people for political reasons.
In a news conference from his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., Trump said his "class-action" lawsuit filed in South Florida targets CEOs Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, Jack Dorsey of Twitter, and Sundar Pichai of Google and Alphabet.
"We are going to hold Big Tech very accountable," Trump said.
