I wonder why Tweets are being deleted?

BiglyBadgers · 20/02/2017 20:57

Having concerns listened to is NOT the same as wanting the result changed.
Yes! This is what annoyed me so much about the article 50 court case. I voted remain, but even so I do not at this stage expect the parliament to stop article 50 being triggered, but the debate had to happen in parliament. Valid concerns about brexit and what that means need to be discussed and understood. I get very upset that we are told that any discussion amounts to people wanting to stop brexit. It does not! It is right and proper that discussion and disagreement should be had during such a complex process which has so many possible outcomes. Angry

I can only think security reasons? (Maybe they're the ones he's sending from an unsecured phone?)

It's a mystery. Maybe he is posting tweets on one phone and someone else has his password and is hastily removing them on another phone. Shame for him nothing ever dies on the internet Grin

TSSDNCOP but Trump does.

Security? Location of the President. Generals?

Ginger he's what we call a 'never was'.

Lweji · 20/02/2017 20:59

Interesting. On the app his tweet it still there, but no comments.

Some did question why he was tweeting in the middle of the meeting.

GingerIvy · 20/02/2017 21:00

Across I'd have to agree with that.

The media has already noted tweets are being deleted too.

Post-election stress disorder

Thankfully, MN is cheaper than a psychiatrist.

AcrossthePond55 · 20/02/2017 21:06

Philosophical Question of the Day; "If a tweet is deleted, did it ever exist?"

According to Trump; NO, because I said it never happened.
According to reality: YES, because it's been copied by people all over the world for eternity and surface when you least expect it.

doesnt look good does it, pretty sure there must be 100's on twitter who screen shot them all asap so it's all recorded for posterity....

Guardian title about today's debate:

Party lines drawn as MPs debate just how stupid Donald Trump really is

Grin
GingerIvy · 20/02/2017 21:13

In fact, if you've noticed, the one sure way to get it flying all over the internet is to delete it. Grin

Pence tried with his tweet from last year that it was unAmerican to have a Muslim ban. It went everywhere! Grin

GingerIvy · 20/02/2017 21:14

Lweji so they're not debating whether or not he is stupid - clearly they all agree on that. Just the level? Grin

woman12345 · 20/02/2017 21:15

so far our parliament and judiciary are keeping her 'i know best' tendencies in check

Well...........compare and contrast:

Arron Banks ( with his Westmonster website , funding and control over extreme right in UK) and the Freedom Association (extreme right wing group with a lot of control over tories) and Atlantic Bridge Liam Fox's little US/UK 'sell the NHS' earner and their hold on May

and

Bannon /Breitbart, any number of financial and political organisations with alt right hold over EP.

and
May is forcing through an epic, epic potentially fatal constitutional and economic change on limited legal or constitutional mandate. Already thousands and thousands of British EU citizens have had letters telling them to leave the country, detention centres are doing great business.

Trump is forcing through the same on arguably similar terms.

Parliament is impotent with no opposition now. Judges attacked in the press. Labour women MPs are suffering terrible and dangerous abuse. If parliament had teeth, they should have had a vote today. But should have been able to vote freely 2 weeks ago.

Bigly I don't think they're dissimilar, in fact I think they might have swapped top dictator tips with each other.

Like ami said you can't change the results, and the sides with the most votes won, fair enough. But the minority voices are not being heard, which is causing the current pickle, and there's only one type of political system which does that and it's not democracy.

GingerIvy · 20/02/2017 21:18

It doesn't sound like the new travel ban is much different than the old one, other than green cards. Preliminary, obviously, so could be some changes.

woman12345 · 20/02/2017 21:19

But fair enough, leave won Bigly I get that, and don't want to disrupt thread. Smile
