> Something tells me the people here arguing that Flaherty wasn't coercive or threatening would be arguing just the opposite if this was the Trump administration.

The Trump administration was doing the same thing.

> When the White House called up Twitter in the early morning hours of September 9, 2019, officials had what they believed was a serious issue to report: Famous model Chrissy Teigen had just called President Donald Trump “a pussy ass bitch” on Twitter — and the White House wanted the tweet to come down.

> “It was strange to me when all of these investigations were announced because it was all about the exact same stuff that we had done [when Donald Trump was in office],” one former top aide to a senior Trump administration official tells Rolling Stone. “It was normal.”

I think you’ll find, that except for hardcore trumpists not many on the right support trump doin this.

I haven't seen any outcry from Hardcore trumpists. There is an outcry for anything Biden does. Is it possible you want them not to support Trump doing that, even though they might do?

They never raised a stink, so I have to assume they, at the very least, didn't have a problem with it.

Horse shit. Even people who swear up and down that they don't like Trump pretend he has done nothing wrong and the only negative press about him is a smear campaign by the wokestream media.

He's very likely going to get the Republican Nomination again.
