The President of the United States already has a gigantic platform, so it&amp;#x27;s not like he&amp;#x27;ll just go away like @nero did. This gives Twitter a chance to annotate his hate with facts, and hopefully reach his audience. Banning him just makes him a martyr, without lessening his reach.&lt;p&gt;I do wish the UI was a bit... angrier. The friendly light blue doesn&amp;#x27;t exactly scream &amp;quot;misinformation!&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;But as they say, sunlight is the best disinfectant. Removing him from Twitter won&amp;#x27;t make him or his base any less hateful. It&amp;#x27;s a constant reminder that he needs to be removed. I think if Twitter and news organizations just started ignoring him, many people would forget how horrible he is.</text></comment>
