Boy, they will really stop at nothing to silence all dissent, won't they?
"Donald Trump has done a lot of horrible things on Twitter. From emboldening white supremacists to promoting violence against journalists, his tweets damage the country and put people in harm's way," the GoFundMe page reads.

It's a scam to bilk millions out of the rubes.
The MILLIONS it will take to buy twitter does not guarantee that twitter will sell. and the money will never be returned to the "investors" when the sale doesn't go through. But hey, anytime the left can waste their own money, I'm all for it. |

The never Trumpers tell me that Trump needs to stop tweeting. If Trump tweeting is hurting him so much why is the left going to such lengths to try and stop him?

Even if it happened he just moves on to another site or starts his own. Also gives him more fuel when calling out the lefts desire to end free speech at any cost.

Where the outrage when cyber bully teens gang up on a kid and drive them to kill themself?
Where's the need to buy twitter and ban extremist groups from recruiting new jihadists? The ethical stupidity is strong. |

I'm sure she will be able to come up with the 15+ billion Twitter is valued at.

Damn, I wish I thought of this.
*collects money, fails at purchase* "Sorry guys, thanks for the money, but what can you do?" |

How funny would of it be if she bought twitter and then Trump stopped tweeting and started using the National Emergency Texting system to reach every mobile device in the US.
|

Scamtastic. Like an early poster said, it's just a fundraiser taking advantage of fools.
Even if it worked, Trump would have a never ending supply of surrogates. |

Ooooo YES! Let them spend their money. Half the country leaves Twitter and a new service is started.
WOOOO HOOOO! A fool and their money are soon parted.... |
|
Lol, "I'll stir up the rubes and get them to buy me a major social media corporation so I can sensor everyone I don't like, because feels".
You couldn't make this shit up. ETA: smoked |

Trump should just use the presidential alert system. Then we can all watch as they start smashing their phones.
|
|
Sure would be a shame if Twitter was declared a Utility and seized by the government soon after....
Those poor left wing investors could loose millions.... |
|
It won't hit anywhere near a billion. I'll be surprised if it breaks 500k

Early life[edit]
Valerie Elise Plame was born on August 13, 1963, on Elmendorf Air Force Base, in Anchorage, Alaska, to Diane (née McClintock) and Samuel Plame III.[1][2][3] Plame's paternal grandfather was Jewish, the son of a rabbi who emigrated from Ukraine; the original family surname was "Plamevotski".[4] The rest of Plame's family was Protestant (the religion in which Plame was raised); she was unaware of her grandfather's ancestry until she was an adult.[4] She was reared in "a military family ... imbued her with a sense of public duty"; her father was a lieutenant colonel in the United States Air Force, who worked for the National Security Agency for three years, and, according to her close friend Janet Angstadt, her parents "are the type who are still volunteering for the Red Cross and Meals on Wheels in the Philadelphia suburb where they live", having moved to that area while Plame was still in school.[5] Education[edit] She graduated in 1981 from Lower Moreland High School, in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania,[6][7] and attended Pennsylvania State University, graduating with a B.A. in advertising in 1985.[5] While a student at Penn State, she joined Pi Beta Phi sorority and worked for the business division of the Daily Collegian student newspaper.[5] By 1995, Plame had earned two master's degrees, one from the London School of Economics and Political Science and one from the College of Europe (Collège d'Europe), in Bruges, Belgium.[1][5] In addition to English, she speaks French, German, and Greek.[5] Marriages and family[edit] After graduating from Penn State in 1985, Plame was briefly married to Todd Sesler, her college boyfriend.[5] In 1997, while she was working for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Plame met former Ambassador Joseph C. Wilson, IV, "at a reception in Washington "..." at the residence of the Turkish Ambassador."[9] According to Wilson, because Plame was unable to reveal her CIA role to him on their first date, she told him that she was an energy trader in Brussels, and he thought at that time that she was "an up-and-coming international executive."[7] After they began dating and became "close," Plame revealed her employment with the CIA to Wilson.[7][10] They were married on April 3, 1998, Plame's second marriage and Wilson's third.[11] Professionally and socially, she has used variants of her name. Professionally, while a covert CIA officer, she used her given first name and her maiden surname, "Valerie Plame." Since leaving the CIA, as a speaker, she has used the name "Valerie Plame Wilson",[1] and she is referred to by that name in the civil suit that the Wilsons brought against former and current government officials, Wilson v. Libby.[12] Socially, and in public records of her political contributions, since her marriage in 1998, she has used the name "Valerie E. Wilson." At the time that they met, Wilson relates in his memoir, he was separated from his second wife Jacqueline, a former French diplomat; they divorced after 12 years of marriage so that he could marry Plame. His divorce had been "delayed because I was never in one place long enough to complete the process," though he and she had already been living separate lives since the mid-1990s.[9] Plame and Wilson are the parents of twins, Trevor Rolph, and Samantha Finnell Diana, born in January 2000. From his first marriage (1973–86), to Susan Dale Otchis, Wilson is also the father of another set of twins (also a boy and a girl), Sabrina Cecile and Joseph Charles, who were born in 1979. Prior to the disclosure of her classified CIA identity, Valerie and Joe Wilson and their twins lived in The Palisades, an affluent neighborhood of Washington, D.C., on the fringe of Georgetown.[5] After she resigned from the CIA following the disclosure of her covert status, in January 2006, they moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico[13][14] where she serves as a consultant to the Santa Fe Institute, a scientific nonprofit research institute for multidisciplinary collaborations. In a 2011 interview, Plame said she and Wilson had received threats while living in the D.C. metro area, and while she acknowledged an element of threat remains in their new home, the New Mexico location "tamps down the whole swirl."[15] |

Why do you bring reason to the discussion? View Quote So that is your idea of sound reason and logic??? This right here folks, is the exact reason we are so fucked. The VAST majority of people on both sides are completely incapable of looking at any point of view without extreme bias. Just look at this guy's idea of fucking "reason and logic". It's literally the exact opposite of what reason and logic actually are lol..... I liked it so much better before the internet opened my eyes to the average intelligence level of the general populace. You would think that having instant access to answer any question you could ever pose would be hugely beneficial for our society.....but it seems like it has done the complete opposite. |
