US President Donald Trump's fondness for Twitter has forced the social media platform to create special rules for people just like him. According to Gizmodo, Twitter has a 'world leader' exemption that means that leader can post pretty much what he or she wants, without being banned. Instead of removing the post or banning the politician, Twitter slaps a warning on the post, saying it's in the public interest for the tweet to remain. However, Twitter says the exemption only lasts for the length of time the incumbent is holding office. So if Joe Biden wins the general election, Trump may fall from Twitter's good graces on January 21st, 2021.
