Twitter decided to stop Donald Trump from spreading false news and his son is angry about it.
Shortly after Twitter flagged Trump’s tweets about mail-in ballots, Donald Trump Jr. took to Twitter to claim that the site needed to flag journalists who reported that Trump colluded with the Russian government to get elected.
He tweeted saying:
“So is @Twitter going to start censoring & fact-checking all the numerous blue check mark “journalists” & leftwing activists who falsely claimed that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government & that
@realDonaldTrump is a “puppet” of Putin for the past 4 years?”

Former Tea Party Republican Joe Walsh decided to fact-check Trump Jr. by reminding him that “The Trump campaign DID collude with Russia.”
Walsh tweeted the following:
“Oh silly Jr. The Trump campaign DID collude with Russia. It’s all right there in the Mueller Report. Including your meeting in Trump Tower to get Russian dirt on Hillary. Mueller said they couldn’t prove all the collusion added up to the crime of conspiracy.”
“You’re such a punk,” he then added.
