• Twitter banned Trump on Friday citing a 'risk of further incitement of violence'
• 'Twitter has gone further and further in banning free speech', Trump posted from his official @POTUS account

After social media platform Twitter banned him on Friday citing a 'risk of further incitement of violence', US President Donald Trump said he will look at building his own platform. The move by the California-based social media platform came two days after hundreds of his supporters had stormed the United States Capitol building and clashed with police, resulting in five deaths. Four civilians and a police officer died.
"After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," Twitter said in a statement on Friday. At the time of permanent suspension, Trump had 88.7 million followers and followed 51 people.
