Valerie Plame Wilson fundraising to buy Twitter so she can delete Trump's account

Valerie Plame Wilson is fundraising to buy a controlling share of Twitter so that she can ban President Trump from the social media platform.

"From emboldening white supremacists to promoting violence against journalists, his tweets damage the country and put people in harm's way," Wilson wrote on her GoFundMe page. "But threatening actual nuclear war with North Korea takes it to a dangerous new level."

Wilson, who was revealed to be a covert CIA operations officer in a 2003 leak, slammed Twitter executives for ignoring calls to enforce the company's own community standards and delete Trump's account.

But Wilson's progress has been slow: She has raised almost $3,000 since the page was set up on Aug. 16, well short of her $1 billion target.

She acknowledged the enormity of task, facing institutional barriers and a stock price that has stabilized at about 16 cents.

A single shareholder or a group acting in kind can gain a controlling interest in a company when they buy 50 percent of its outstanding shares plus one. Twitter currently has about 731 million outstanding shares.

"If we can't get a majority interest, we'll explore options for buying a significant stake in the company and champion this proposal at the annual shareholder meeting," Wilson wrote of Twitter, which is worth about $11.8 billion.

If she got 51 percent of outstanding shares and thus controlling interest and proceeded with her plan, she might just cause a massive sell off of the remaining 49 percent. The stock price would plummet, the idiots would lose all their money, and some smart people could but Twitter for pennies on the dollar.

At least we'll know where the Plame goes. Trump lives in other people's heads rent free. The Art of the Deal...

"But threatening actual nuclear war with North Korea takes it to a dangerous new level."...that's funny - I could have sworn it was North Korea which was threatening nuclear war with us - thank goodness she was only some low level CIA person when she was outed.....

Valerie who? Sounds like another insane leftist with a severe case of TDS. A few years in a padded room should fix her right up. I’d say 8 years just to be sure.

Why in the world would she want to do that?

I know why of course. The low-information voter has long been a lock for the liberals. Trump knew how to break that idiot barrier.

Of course the left is enraged. They “OWN” the ignorant. How dare you enter our domain and give them a reason to think.

WE DO THAT. Right Mika?

Right you are...at a constant rate of raising $3,000.00 every 6 days, then 5,479 1/2 years is “no time” in the grand scheme of things. (I think my calculations are correct)

Doesn’t “Go Fund Me” have Fraud Guidelines in place?

There are at least five outright Lies in her Statement being used to solicit funds.

Valerie Plame has her own chapter in the book Sabotage: America's Enemies within the CIA by Rowan Scarborough. Published July 16, 2007.

What an honor for her that must be.
