I doubt it could be presented to him as that, though.

lionheart · 30/05/2017 21:58

But won't some of those bots be tweeting to other bots (especially if there are so many)?

And won't those bots also be monitored and their activities tracked by the cyber-detectives?

Confused

I 'believe' that eg activity, location, timing, sentiment etc etc are all used by the experts to determine which - if any - are bot accounts. It's a complicated issue.

Roussette · 30/05/2017 22:01

On one of DT's tweet threads, bots were tweeting other bots. Apparently. Cleverer people than me were saying Grin

cozietoesie · 30/05/2017 22:03

Sure. Why not? Smile

Roussette · 30/05/2017 22:03

And one had tweeted something like 5,000 times in a 24 hour period - no sleep!

It all seems a bit like the calm before the shitstorm tonight. Dunno why but it feels like something big will drop soon

cozietoesie · 30/05/2017 22:17

An unfortunate choice of words?

I'm just watching House of Cards. (President Underwood.) It's true - they have 'better writers'. Wink

We're looking forward to Rachel Maddow tonight. Kushner, Epshteyn, and Cohen all starting to become 'persons of interest' in the Russia investigations. Rachel has a good way of tying all these ends together and pointing out things that one wouldn't normally think about. She also has a way of pointing out when something is NOT as important as it appears. That's good because I fear I'm becoming waaayyy too excited.

lionheart that essay is extraordinary.

Trump accused of plagiarising family crest:

AcrossthePond55 · 31/05/2017 02:38

I read about that Family Crest thing, CaveMum. It really made me laugh. What a pompous, self-important prat.

I expect, though, that a great many Americans don't truly understand about family crests, Coats of Arms, etc in the British/Scottish tradition and how or why a family has or becomes entitled to one. All most of them know is that you can buy your family's Crest/Coat of Arms over the internet,. All you have to do is select your last name from the drop down menu. Hmm

I sort of agree, but I have felt like this before! But I think the pressure is ratcheting up more and more.

Why the hell is he tweeting 2 hours ago, that's a bit weird isn't it? And why is he tweeting I resign in russian? ! (not really but that's the best reaction I've read so far!)

How embarrassing to have your President tweeting rubbish at gone midnight.
