He can afford his own instance which will never block him. Let's not pretend he's being stopped from running an independent social broadcast.

It doesn't matter how many instances block him - nobody can be forced to listen to him.

Not sure what you're trying to say, but it sounds like a bad take. Pick any/all reasons:

- Trump family also using private email server for gov communication

- Implying that a random Mastodon instance on the internet would be more trusted than his own

- Implying that it matters at all for posting public messages or is similar in any way to private messages
