Trump is using Twitter to incite a war



VoteVets



It gives us absolutely no pleasure to say that Donald Trump is the most dangerous person in the world right now. It seems like with every single day that passes, he threatens North Korea with nuclear war again and again.

Of course, Congress needs to pass legislation that takes away his ability to strike North Korea without their approval.

And, frankly, Twitter needs to take away his ability to goad North Korea into acts of war that would force the United States to respond militarily. The president is using their platform to incite war -- war that would likely kill millions of people, including many Americans.

Tell Twitter: Take away President Trump's account if he continues to use the platform as a tool to provoke North Korea into a pre-emptive strike.

This isn't really a joke. The pundits and the press absurdly call it "Twitter diplomacy" when world leaders put information on the platform designed to get other nations to respond or change their stance on a topic.

But President Trump is using the platform to incite Kim Jong-un to strike at a United States ally, or U.S. territory. I mean, look at this from this morning:


Twitter has never really done an adequate job removing white supremacists and others who use hate speech from the platform.

They didn't do an adequate job stopping the proliferation of bots attempting to impact than 2016 president election.

But there are millions of lives at stake, and Twitter must step up to curb the president's efforts to use their platform to incite nuclear war.

Tell Twitter: Take away President Trump's account if he continues to use the platform as a tool to provoke North Korea into a pre-emptive strike.

Thanks for making your voice heard.
