The practical implications of someone running their own blog are terrifying!

I mean, it's always good to have these thought exercises, but I think you're panicking a bit about the sky falling if the thought of a billionaire former president being banned from a microblog is what your mind is worried about in the current moment.

No, Twitter suspends millions of accounts, of varying notability. Obviously, they just don't get the attention that the President does.

You're clearly carefully picking words that frame the event as inconsequential. That nameless "microblog" is how millions of Americans get their news, lol.
