Campaign Action ... Sign the petition: Kick Trump off Twitter ... It’s time for Twitter to shut down Trump’s account.
IMHO, every person with a large number of followers should be held to a higher standard than is needed for people with a small number of fans. Trump maybe has a record number of followers and should be held legally (financially) liable for the damage associated with his posts as should the platform!

Twitter’s rules clearly state that they “do not tolerate behavior that crosses the line into abuse,” including direct or indirect violent threats, harassment, and hateful conduct.
Trump’s recent tweets, especially those concerning North Korea and the white supremacist riot in Charlottesville, are blatant violations of Twitter’s rules and Terms of Service. He has threatened nuclear war, retweeted (and then deleted) images of journalists being gravely injured, and encouraged extremist violence by promoting white supremacists and Nazis on his account for months.
In the wake of Charlottesville’s deadly white supremacist riot and the responses to Heather Heyer’s death by neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer, Twitter has begun shutting down some white supremacists’ Twitter accounts.
Trump’s tweets do not come without consequences. It’s time for Twitter to finally do what activists have asked for months: kick Trump off Twitter.
Sign our petition now to urge Twitter to shut down Trump’s account.
