If Facebook, Twitter and YouTube can censor me, they can censor you—and believe me, they are, writes Donald J. Trump https://t.co/bMFTFypGwm

Donald Trump is complaining about censorship by *checks notes* writing an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal.

Why won't the WSJ host my op-eds? I AM BEING CENSORED!!!!

"I've been silenced!" he wrote in the Wall Street Journal.

I wanted to write an editorial for the Wall Street Journal. They didn’t let me. If they can censor me, they can censor you.

the first WSJ opinion written in crayon.

It's not the biggest takeaway from Trump's op-ed (the biggest has to do with what WSJ opinion has become) but it was still perplexing to me that Trump's use of "illegal alien" wasn't changed by an editor. AP stopped using the term in 2013, and many pubs have since followed suit.

Should the WSJ editorial page be hosting someone they condemned for attempting to subvert democracy? Donald J. Trump: If Facebook, Twitter and YouTube can censor me, they can censor you—and believe me, they are. https://t.co/mwrLrSUTYm via @WSJOpinion

Trump screams “I AM BEING CENSORED!” from the editorial page of a mainstream international media outlet.

Shame on you, @WSJ, shame on you, @WSJopinion. https://t.co/Kk8jRxk5At

Of course they can censor me! I’m a person using their product for free! They are a private company! https://t.co/uSYXSgyuW4

Donald J. Trump did not write a single word of this column.

WSJ really thinks we’re idiots. How about you stop platforming insurrectionists who’d rather destroy American democracy than share it with Black people?? Just a thought. https://t.co/1MdoLPaRQk

“I’m being censored!” he screams in an op-Ed published in one of the biggest newspapers in the world. https://t.co/UZpgS6vrq4

"I'm being censored," cries the former president in the 2nd widest circulated newspaper in America. Yup, that's totally how censorship works. https://t.co/trZhkbBxhT

"I'm being censored" writes man in a guest column reprinted in one of the world's largest newspapers. "My viewpoints aren't being heard" he complains after coming from a weekly in-person political rally. pic.twitter.com/eNApN7VY7X

Hey WSJ, if he can "write" for a national newspaper, how is he "censored"?
