Call for Nobel prize for man behind deleting Trump's Twitter
SOMEONE at Twitter clearly had enough of Donald Trump's rants and decided to (briefly) end his social media reign.
A former Twitter customer support worker deactivated the US president's choice of mouthpiece on his last day of work for 11 whole minutes - that's years in internet years.
Donald Trump’s Twitter account just went down for the most excellent reason https://t.co/bGxgxQjqkR pic.twitter.com/usrJb2fllg

Twitter quickly released a brief statement and said it was conducting an internal review.
The internet however, can't get enough of the maverick who silenced the POTUS.
In fact, people are calling for the unnamed person to get a knighthood.
Please get the departing Twitter employee who deactivated Donald Trump’s account on their last day a medal, a knighthood, a magnum of champagne and a small tropical island.

Others are saying the former employee should be rehired and receive a promotion.
You say “human error,” I say “due for a promotion" https://t.co/KHDFFUezsL
