There should be a twitter boycott until DT is booted off
If you notice your neighborhood is filling up with sewage, you bail and pump, but first you close the spigot.
IMO, sitting public office holders, and probably candidates for office too, should be taken off of Twitter until they're "civilians" again.
The Twitter creators couldn't have imagined that their ap / service would be used to spread political propaganda to such a damaging extent. If Twitter were being used to spread any other kind of poison, they would put a stop to it. Maybe if enough people stopped tweeting for a day, the message would be sent -- either he goes, or we go.
Opinions?
