> Would it prevent a public official from creating an account on a social media site which only allows members of one political party to leave comments?
It's hard to tell exactly where the boundaries are for this sort of thing, because (AFAICT) the existing public forum law that is being applied to social media hasn't dealt with the analogous issue with physical forums clearly and unambiguously.
That particular example seems pretty likely to be out of bounds, though.
