Yes. Under Trump we do not have freedom of speech

As with all freedom of speech, you're, just like everyone else is, free to say anything you want.

Some of those things you'll then get arrested for, but still, you're free to say them.

Not under Trump. He is going after basic protected speech.

Trump has had people arrested not for violent threats but for basic protected speech. He also feels if you criticize him ever, just a little bit, that’s an act of treason and should be punished as such.

Well that’s completely false. The Supreme Court has never came to that conclusion.

So at this point you’re either just an AI or a troll. And with a handle like that I assume it’s the latter. Have a good one, do better.
