YouTube, following in the path of very nearly every other social media platform, is suspending President Donald Trump's channel due to concerns that he will use it to foment additional violence in the coming days.

While it is possible Trump may have his account reinstated after that period, comments to his videos are shut down "indefinitely," due to "safety concerns found in the comments section," YouTube added.

Like Twitter and others, they only act when they have nothing to fear.
