@realDonaldTrump, the Twitter feed that grew from the random musings of a reality TV star into the cudgel of an American president, has died. It was not quite 12 years old.

The provocative handle was given birth by a New York real estate tycoon who used it to help him become the 45th U.S. president. It began with a May 4, 2009, tweet promoting Donald Trump’s upcoming appearance on David Letterman’s show.

It died more than 57,000 tweets later, with Trump using some of his final postings on the powerful platform to commiserate with a pro-Trump mob that besieged the halls of Congress in a deadly assault as lawmakers were set to certify his defeat.

We’re getting a slight whiff in the wind of the Night of Broken glass before it actually happens.

With 57,000 tweets read by countless Twitter accounts there is total illusion at the highest level. What is going to make up for the loss of readership and interaction? It is like McDonald's getting rid of the Big Mac because of an ideological difference. Their censorship is like shooting themselves in the foot. And that tells me much about their stupidity which will affect more than their foot. It could collapse their entire operation.

Look as this guy. Notice the nose ring. Does he look smart to you?

Everyone, deactivate your Twitter (and Facebook) accounts. Just do it.

He's a multibillionaire and the most powerful man in the country.

So, yes, he looks smart.

Yesterday was the MAGA Red Wedding.

Nice way of putting it. Capitol Police betrayed us by leaving the fences and allowing troublemakers get in the Capitol to vandalize the building. It was completely unnecessary because 95% of MAGA crowd was following the rules but every crowd, you have some extremists (possibly ANTIFA folks but you could have a couple of lone nuts who believed in crazy shit as well) who were ready to destroy stuff if they had the opportunity to do so.
