'Twitter Lockout': Apparent bot purge sparks outrage from conservative users

Yeah, I was seeing a lot of people angry that they were targeted as "bots" by Twitter today. Apparently some of the 'key words' was God, Guns, 'murica, and other such 'warning signs.'

Some day I hope I understand the pathology that makes the left believe that disagreement with their views can't possibly be grassroots, that there must always be some vast conspiracy ranging against them. The left's apparent inability to face reality is truly stupefying to me.

Followers amounting to 1000s in number were taken away, only to be added back on again when twitter realized that Yes these are actual people supporting Trump. We are an internet Army defending and promoting our President. We are people that love our country and President Trump. We are not bots.
And yes, it was one sided.

They did however find a lot of them were bots though.

Seriously Tulc? You just ramble on about something you have no clue? The lock out was stupid. The following was returned and everything is back to normal.
What democrats hate to know is the fact that actual Americans support Trump on the internet and in the voting booths. We do not rely on cheating and scheming as does the democrats.

Hey it must be serious, it's on Fox news.
(small aside: my screen name is always spelled with a lower case "t" unless it's at the beginning of a sentence)
Again, it's not me "rambling" it's a lot of news outlets talking about it.
No, you did indeed manage to get your d-list reality tv star elected to the Presidency with a minority of voters because of that portion of the Constitution that seems to be the only way Republicans can get elected to that job in the 21st century. What a lot of us don't understand is: why, Republicans act like even though almost 3,000,000 more actual Americans wanted someone else to have the job he's clearly not able to do you guys want the rest of us to simply accept it? When for 8 years you all couldn't manage to accept the candidate who not only won with a majority of Electoral collage votes AND a majority of the popular votes. I don't know about you all? But I have to be honest here: I'm having LOADS of fun watching you guys try and explain why the guy you all elected to this office can't seem to do anything except tweet, play golf and make more people mad at the Republican Party.

tulc.. I voted for Obama twice. I also never watched Trump on his tv show.
I voted for him because of his promises to help America. Same reason I voted twice for Obama.
So far Trump is doing a much better job (in my opinion) than Obama.
Yes there was a purge of Republican followers on Twitter. It is being reported because it was done simply against Republicans. All the people have been reinstated. It was prejudice against Republicans. I would be complaining if they had done it to Democrats.

As far as the electorial college? That is the way presidents have always been elected. Trump followed the rules and turned purple states red. Democrats held the advantage in the electrorial college. Hillary took it for granted.
Hillary did not even visit some of these states. She perfered to have fund raisers in NY and California.
Your candidate lost so of course Trump won. Hillary was a very flawed candidate. Even with all cheating and the backing of media... She still lost.

Yes, I understand how the college works and I never said President Trump wasn't President. What I said was: that portion of the Constitution seems only to help Republicans become President. In fact? In the 21st century 2 of the 3 Republicans elected President only got in because of the Electoral collage. So excuse me if I tend to be less then impressed by a candidate who only got into office because of a 19th century compromise and an Amendment to the Constitution.
tulc(does however appreciate Stormy's honest and friendly response, he knows this subject can be...pretty tense sometimes!)
