Trump’s Twitter Account Shut Down!
It finally happened, Donald Trump’s Twitter account has been shut down! But then it was back up 11 minutes later. Apparently the 11 minute twitter blackout was caused by an employee that was on his last day on the job.
I don’t know why this was the employee’s last day, but he did go out like a G (short for gangster/a hip hop term for you squares) and we at Whiskey Congress commend the young man.
Personally I don’t mind Trump’s tweeting (except for when he does threaten Nuclear War with “Rocket Man”), but frankly had this happened to Hillary, Mark Cuban, or even Ryan Reynolds it would still be hilarious. Think about being able to walk off your job on your last day and do that one thing you always wanted to do (or wanted to do for the last 18 months).
I like my day job so I probably wouldn’t be “dump on my bosses desk” guy, although I may form tackle Rob, knock Bruce’s pictures off his wall, or egg Breen’s car just for fun, but in reality I wouldn’t do any of those things mostly because you never want to burn a bridge. This former twitter employee gave zero f’s, said “bridges be burned” and flipped the switch that about 65% of the country wants to flip.
To you former Twitter employee, Whiskey Congress salutes you, cheers!
Some historic moments pass in one fell swoop.
President Abraham Lincoln’s reading of the Gettysburg Address lasted only two or three minutes. Last year, Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps smashed an ancient record when he swam the 200-meter individual medley in 1 minute and 54.66 seconds.
And then for a brief window on Thursday evening, 330 million Twitter users slid into a world without @realDonaldTrump.
President Trump’s Twitter account — from which he aggressively confronts those who displease him, suggests North Korea “may not be around much longer!” and promotes Trump Tower taco bowls — disappeared.
Twitter initially posted a statement Thursday night saying Trump’s “account was inadvertently deactivated due to human error by a Twitter employee.”
For those few minutes, visitors to Trump’s account were simply met with the message, “Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!”
“The account was down for 11 minutes, and has since been restored,” the statement read. “We are continuing to investigate and are taking steps to prevent this from happening again.”
Earlier today @realdonaldtrump’s account was inadvertently deactivated due to human error by a Twitter employee. The account was down for 11 minutes, and has since been restored. We are continuing to investigate and are taking steps to prevent this from happening again.
