MARTHA MACCALLUM (HOST): I don't want to let you go without asking you to respond to the president's Twitter account being shut down. This is a big story tonight, what do you think?
MARC THIESSEN: Yeah, I don't believe in censorship. I just don't. And I -- and nobody has been more angry at the president of the United States than I have been in the last few days, I was a strong supporter of the president and wanted him to get reelected and he's just disappointed me so much with his behavior since the election.
He -- I blame him for losing control of the Senate in Georgia. I think that he incited the riots yesterday, but I don't believe in censorship. I don't believe that tech -- social media companies should be censoring speech.
