<\/a>Earlier this week I deactivated my Twitter account. \u00a0Why? \u00a0It’s not because I couldn’t keep up with the readership, it was, time. \u00a0The man that made up my mind was our President elect, Mr. Trump. \u00a0While it is no secret that I’m not his biggest fan; it is his seemingly unfiltered approach to twitter that caused my reservation and ultimately the deactivation of my account.<\/p>\n

When I saw the tweets that he was putting out, naw…I don’t ever want to be in that position. \u00a0The guy is smart, very smart. \u00a0Unfortunately; his tweets, to me, work against him. \u00a0Once you put something out there, whether it be Facebook, Twitter, email or any other social platform; once you hit the submit button; that information is gone, and you have absolutely no right of privacy once those 1 & 0’s have left your computer. \u00a0There is no expectation of privacy when dealing with a medium connected to the internet<\/em><\/span>. \u00a0If you feel your emails and Facebook messages are private – you are only fooling yourself. \u00a0 Just ask the DNC.<\/p>\n

I don’t follow others on Twitter and only my cat followed me, so I’m sure the twitter community will not be in despair.<\/p>\n

Goodbye my little bird…goodbye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
