NetChoice, a trade group both Facebook and Google are members of, said in a statement that they not only oppose Trump’s decision to sue, but cannot see a way forward for him in the courts.
“President Trump has no case,” NetChoice CEO Steve DelBianco said in a statement. “The First Amendment protects Americans and our media from government control. Mr. Trump’s mistaken view of the First Amendment would empower the government to direct, mandate, and ban political speech on the internet.”
