Like a toddler who has misused a toy, Donald Trump’s campaign took away his access to Twitter, according to a report in the New York Times. President Barack Obama, out on the campaign trail, couldn’t get enough of it.
"In the last few days they have had so little faith in his self-control that they took away his Twitter account," Obama said to laughter from the crowd during a rally Sunday for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in Kissimmee, Fla.
He added: "If someone tweets at 2 a.m. because 'Saturday Night Live' made fun of you, you cannot handle the nuclear codes."
Trump is famous for his many tweets at all hours of the day, many of which have been controversial. Cutting off his access is meant to prevent any last minute uproar.
"Aides to Mr. Trump have finally wrested away the Twitter account that he used to colorfully — and often counterproductively — savage his rivals," the report said, citing anonymous interviews with "dozens of aides, operatives, supporters and advisers."
