Someone deleted a retweet and this started this. There is enough crap with Trump without this made-up scandal

That had been continuously retweeted. It seems like he deleted it and retweeted it just to cut off that thread of retweets.

So yes, he's not deleting mass tweets, but he (more likely, his handlers) is manipulating them.

but, SO WHAT?

His "tweets" have been absurd, insulting, vulgar, insane, and add any number of other words you elect to use.

His "actions" regarding any negative event have been absurd, insulting, vulgar, insane, and add any number of other words you elect to use.

His policies have been absurd, insulting, vulgar, insane, and add any number of other words you elect to use.

His speeches have been absurd, insulting, vulgar, insane, and add any number of other words you elect to use.

And WHAT has been done about it?

Makes his "shoot someone on 5th avenue" comment even more like prophecy...........

when I saw the recent tweet, I was puzzled, thinking it was an older one, then checked the date.

His terms, as in "infestation" are cleverly used. too cleverly for him, can you just see

Are official communications - seems like he is illegally deleting government documents.
