Twitter Employee Deactivates President Trump’s Account

A Twitter employee who was leaving their customer service job at the company deliberately deleted the profile of the most powerful man on the planet in a mischievous act on their last day of work.

President Donald Trump's Twitter account disappeared for 11 minutes on Thursday evening after the rogue employee at the social networking company removed the entire profile.

The sabotage took place shortly before 7 p.m. on Thursday when social media reports surfaced that the president's personal account @realdonaldtrump was unavailable, providing the error message that the user 'does not exist.'

After a brief investigation Twitter owned up and took responsibility for the outage.

In a tweeted statement, the company said Trump's account was “inadvertently deactivated due to human error' by one of its employees.”

“We are continuing to investigate and are taking steps to prevent this from happening again,” the statement continued.

But in a second statement, Twitter confirmed it was an employee on their last day.

“Through our investigation we have learned that this was done by a Twitter customer support employee who did this on the employee's last day. We are conducting a full internal review.”

The president's visitors were greeted with both a frustrating and confusing message: “Sorry, that page doesn't exist! You can search Twitter using the search box below or return to the homepage.”
