Trump made the suggestion on Twitter, accusing it and other platforms of silencing conservative voices.
The remark came after another of Trump’s tweets was flagged for misinformation about mail-in ballots.
At the time of his remarks, the United States had just reached 100,000 deaths due to COVID-19.
Trump’s past tweets have been met with similar flags, such as one in which he posted an edited video of Biden. He has also claimed that he lost the 2016 popular vote because of mass fraud, and said that mail-in voting meant no Republican would win an election again.
