“Silencing people, not to mention the President of the U.S., is what happens in China not our country,” tweeted Indian- American politician Nikki Haley.
Twitter on Friday permanently suspended Mr. Trump’s account due to the “risk of further incitement of violence”, days after his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol and caused the deaths of four civilians and a police officer.
“Silencing people, not to mention the President of the U.S., is what happens in China not our country,” tweeted Ms. Haley on Friday.
“Unbelievable,” said the former U.S. Ambassador to the UN who during a closed-door meeting of the Republican National Committee in Florida on Thursday strongly condemned Mr. Trump’s comments inciting supporters to mount an attack on the U.S. Capitol. The President has not always chosen the right words and his actions post-election will be “judged harshly by history”, she had said in the meeting.
