The move appeared to be the first by Twitter against Trump for an 'abusive' tweet.
Twitter on Tuesday hid a tweet from President Donald Trump in which he threatened to use"serious force" against protestors in the US capital, saying it broke rules over abusive content.
The action by Twitter requires users to click through to read the Trump tweet, with a tag on the message that it"violated the Twitter rules about abusive behavior" but that it would remain accessible"in the public's interest." The president has already signed an executive order which could lead to more government oversight of social media firms, despite doubts about its legal authority.
