It makes a lot of sense when they spell it out that way.

So when future historians want to write about Trump, how do they get these tweets? Its the primary record of his presidency. .They are not in the public domain and never will be. Links to his tweets embedded in thousands of existing articles are now dead. This is nerdy me thinking out loud, not that important.
Isn’t there a record in the library of Congress of all tweets, maybe I am dreaming?
I thought I recalled something about that a long time ago. I am probably imagining it.
It's more convoluted than I thought. The LOC stopped cataloguing all of Twitter a few years ago.
The White House is responsible for preserving the president's records, and it's unclear how they have mamaged the tweets from his personal account, which is most of them.
It's also not clear if they kept the deleted ones, which are of course the most egregious. .

This determination is based on a number of factors, including:
President Trump’s statement that he will not be attending the Inauguration is being received by a number of his supporters as further confirmation that the election was not legitimate and is seen as him disavowing his previous claim made via two Tweets (1, 2) by his Deputy Chief of Staff, Dan Scavino, that there would be an “orderly transition” on January 20th.
The second Tweet may also serve as encouragement to those potentially considering violent acts that the Inauguration would be a “safe” target, as he will not be attending.
The use of the words “American Patriots” to describe some of his supporters is also being interpreted as support for those committing violent acts at the US Capitol.
The mention of his supporters having a “GIANT VOICE long into the future” and that “They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!” is being interpreted as further indication that President Trump does not plan to facilitate an “orderly transition” and instead that he plans to continue to support, empower, and shield those who believe he won the election.
Plans for future armed protests have already begun proliferating on and off-Twitter, including a proposed secondary attack on the US Capitol and state capitol buildings on January 17, 2021.
As such, our determination is that the two Tweets above are likely to inspire others to replicate the violent acts that took place on January 6, 2021, and that there are multiple indicators that they are being received and understood as encouragement to do so.
I freely admit I thought I'd never see the day when Twitter would arrive at such a smart (if obvious) analysis. This reasoning is also a perfect blueprint for impeachment. All the more bizarre is that they are saying (out loud) they trust this potential future as wholly believable. I hope others are paying attention.
To do the opposite is to further normalize him.

Yeah not me. But I'm good with the FBI, Homeland Security and the NSA being there.
