Months before Donald Trump mused publicly about a plan to “strongly regulate” some social media and other tech platforms “or close them down,” his son said the federal government should begin to withdraw some legal protections from them.
Donald Trump Jr. told Zenger News in February that companies like Facebook and Google should lose government protections if they discriminate against conservatives and try to mute their points of view.
“It’s not free-market when these tech companies have many protections from liability from the U.S. government,” Trump Jr. said.
Trump Jr. said Google discriminates against conservatives by filtering some political messages in Gmail accounts, and not others.
