In a new blow to the tweets of US President Donald Trump, twitter, on Friday, has hidden one of the president’s tweets saying it represents  "glorifying violence", amid escalating confrontation between Trump and Twitter about "freedom of expression."

The US President was commenting on the riots in Minneapolis, Minnesota, as protests escalated after the death of black American citizen George Floyd, who appeared in a video struggling to catch his breath while a white police officer pressed his knee into Floyd’s neck.

Trump warned, "When the looting starts, the shooting starts." "These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won't let that happen," President Donald Trump tweeted.
