Twitter users are reporting Trump's account for 'threatening violence' against North Korea

Can a president be suspended from Twitter for threatening to attack another country?

That's what some Twitter users, including actor and former Barack Obama aide Kal Penn, are demanding, after President Trump tweeted Friday morning that U.S. "military solutions are now fully in place, locked and loaded, should North Korea act unwisely."

Critics of the president's tweet say the rhetoric reflects a threat of violence against North Korea that violates Twitter's rules and terms of service.

"Seems pretty clear that you can't threaten mass murder via nuclear war, right @twitter? Asking for 7.4 billion friends," tweeted Penn, along with a screenshot of Twitter's terms of service.

Rush said it best: Twitter is nothing more than a wasteland of hate and utter confusion, constant bots manipulating the site. These fools saying this are a human aberration, the logical consequence of this: Francis A. Schaeffer has argued, “If there are no absolutes by which to judge society, then society is absolute.” Francis Schaeffer, How Shall We Then Live? (Old Tappan NJ: Fleming H Revell Company, 1976), p. 224.

Snowflakes don’t know the difference between a threat and a promise.

They should go to North Korea and show Chubby Jong-un that they aren't brutes like You-Know-Who!

Then they can all sit around singing Kumbayah in Korean.

If I would be Trump I wouldn’t threaten that dimwit in NK. Instead I would issue a statement in form of a promise to be sent to the Chinese premier as well, in so many words stating and giving them the assurance, that if we see any destructive airborne device heading to the US or any of our property thereof, we will make sure that most of NK will be turned into a glazed over landscape. Should this beer bellied dimwit make any further statements or threatening announcements, I would just refer him to the original statement and ask him which part of it he doesn’t understand. And if by chance he still has difficulties comprehending I would suggest to seek the advice of the Chinese prime minister, or whoever runs the show there and try to convince this pipsqueak that we have the necessary equipment to make good on our promise.

I lost a few FB friends over the last few days over this. They posted the lib talking point of “eeeevil thump threatens to start nuclear war wot poor NK”. I responded by point out the actual human rights violations in NK and the fact that the are siding with a internationally recognized dictator/human right violator who treated to use nuclear weapons in on US soil over their country.

Got called a fascist and told I don’t understand the situation as one friend said “ unlike you, I have a PhD in developmental psyc so I am actually qualified to discuss these matters, unlike you uneducated simpletons.” Then they unfriended me. Meh.

I really cannot understand these leftists.

North Korea has been working on its nuclear weapons program for decades, thanks to Bill Clinton. They routinely attempt to infiltrate South Korea, although the number of attempts has been dropping steadily. They plotted to murder the South Korean president. The dictator is threatening to attack the US, as he has been doing for a while now. He is conducting nuclear tests, while claiming that he is going to reduce the US to rubble.

President Trump tells him that either he stands down, or he will face consequences.

And, somehow, to our left, *Trump* is the problem.

I often suspect that there are crossed wires in liberal brains. The more logical an idea is, the more they reject it. It’s like they have a fundamental inability to think rationally and logically.

If blocked, Trump could issue executive order blocking Twitter from all government computers, devices, and phones. And tell government workers to get back to work. A win-win.

I was in Jerome AZ today with family on vacation when an air raid siren went off on a regular test. My stupid little forty year old niece said that it was Trump who was probably getting us into nuclear war
I had been holding my mud on politics and was trying to keep the peace but I was pissed. I told her that I was tired of the Trump bashing and that she couldn’t possibly believe that he was worse than that little nork gook. She became a shrinking violent after that. I am pissed and I think all of us Patriots should start shouting back at everyone and everywhere.

Has TWITTER ever made a net profit?

Makes you wonder about the shareholders and investment advisors.

I hope when the Holy of Holies cuts DJT off from Twitter that he will initiate anti trust actions against it and Facebook and Google.

Developmental is the word.
