As Trump is the President of the United States, knowing what he says is in the public's interest - until the end which is reached nowadays.
That's why this action happened now and not much earlier.

My question here though is: does blocking Trump from Twitter really equate to blocking the public from hearing what he's saying? As someone who doesn't use and never really 'got' Twitter it's really hard for me to take Twitter that seriously. Aren't there myriad other and better ways for the president to reach more people? (Note that only a small-ish minority of U.S. adults even use Twitter at all)
(but then the question is? is that a good thing? or having a failsafe as a good press secretary is a better idea, even if we get to know less about what a politician really thinks)
As pointed out elsewhere, he is the President of the US and all that entails, he has plenty of ways to get his message out including even the official @POTUS twitter account.
Just more dishonest nonsense that we have to wade through.
I don't remember everything, but he was talking about an announcement of some kind of an alternative.
Sounded to me like he's planning to build his own platform.
Actually if Twitter were silently forced to not only carry the president's message but also boost it to everyone's feed and secretly silence his opponents that feels more USSR to me, and feels like almost the opposite of what's happening here.
