Rushing to rejoin a site I was BANNED from because nobody gives a shit about my posts on a shitty copycat site? Where is the dignity? The self respect?

That may come as a shock to some

If he's reinstated on Twitter the media will give it 15 minutes, then his account will just get blasted with mocking memes and embarrassing ratios

They'd be blocking accounts all day long. I'm sure there are people out there thinking up new insults to hurl at His Orangeness when the time arrives.

He won't recruit any more MAGAts at this point, and there's always the likelihood he'll tweet something stupid that will place him in even more legal jeopardy.
