Should politicians (and public figures) be able to block people on their social media accounts if they disagree with their opinions?

Poll - Total Votes: 14

Yes

You can only vote on one answer.

Let's say they use their social media accounts for official business related to their position and engaging with their constituents.

Should they be allowed to block people and prevent them from engaging in what could be considered a public forum?

No. Shouldn't have started using it for official business.

@QuixoticSoul Yup, should have let the new york slimes be his mouthpiece, they are so neutral and can be trusted not to slant the news

@sunsporter1649 So Trump learned his lying from Democrats? Do tell ;)

@sunsporter1649 New York Times is a [i]much[/i] more reliable, not to mention sane, source than Trump will ever be. It's asinine to even compare the two.

But aside from that, the past presidents and the white house have always issued statements. They just didn't do it thirty times a day while constipated and angry. And they tended to make sense.

@QuixoticSoul How much did you pay for that kool-ade?

@sunsporter1649 For example, the Ambassador bridge, crossing from Detroit to Canada.
