He lives inside their heads 24/7.
Via The Daily Mail:
More than 12,000 tweets have called for President Donald Trump’s assassination since he was inaugurated two weeks ago, according to Dataminr statistics.
Social media users like Zachary Benton, 24, of Ohio have already been charged with threatening the president, while Madonna came under fire for saying she wanted to ‘blow up’ the White House during the Women’s March in Washington DC.
Former Secret Service special agent Tim Franklin told Mashable that the agency was likely to look for repeated threats, specific details of any possible attacks, and other trends before launching an investigation.[…]
A Dataminr search of the keywords ‘assassinate Trump’, revealed more than 12,000 posts on Twitter since January 20, Mashable reported.
But the Secret Service is likely to let many of the social media users off the hook, and Franklin said: ‘They’re not going to to beat down the door of everybody who makes a negative Twitter comment.’
Instead, the law enforcement agency will look out for certain trends, like those who make repeated threats, or include specific details about how they plan to take down the president.
Benson, from Fairview Park, Ohio, tweeted on election day: ‘Diplomacy. F***ing fools. I hate you all. I want to bomb every one of your voting booths and your general areas.’
Minutes later, he wrote: ‘My life goal is to assassinate Trump. Don’t care if I serve infinite sentences. That man deserves to decease existing.’
