I don't think so. I've know for a long time that Google, Twitter and Facebook is to PREVENT communication and not facilitate it but if I tried to tell anybody about this, I was written off as a crank. Trump using Twitter, Youtube, and Facebook guaranteed the creation of alternatives and got people to seek them out.

Gab just copies Tweets from Twitter, probably via their API.
It's not like Trump himself is posting to Gab.

Maybe / Maybe not. I'm sure he's got some competent staffers.
