The Satanic Temple, an activist group based in Salem, Massachusetts, is threatening to sue Twitter for religious discrimination after one of its co-founders had his Twitter account permanently suspended.

Lucien Greaves, the Satanic Temple's co-founder and spokesman, said his Twitter account was permanently suspended without any notice after he asked his followers to report a tweet that called for the Satanic Temple to be burned down.

"We're talking to lawyers today," Greaves said Friday about whether he planned to take legal action.

    Your apoplexy won't change a thing - recent history suggests that the incumbent almost always wins, no matter how good or bad he might be.

    Not exactly. Recent history shows that the incumbent always wins, *except* when the economy takes a dive during his re-election campaign (and it helps if it turns out he went back on a campaign promise to not raise taxes).

    If the economy is doing badly in 2020, expect Trump to lose. If it's doing OK, expect him to win, unless maybe the Democrats break with tradition and actually pick a likeable candidate.
