I don't want Trump kicked off Twitter. That gives us a window to how crazy he is. His posts, while shameful, mean the 25th Amendment is more likely to be invoked; he is more likely to be impeached; he alienates more Republicans, like MM; & he alienates more voters.

for 25th or impeachment. Repubs are less likely to feel pressure to act.

we need a record of his statements, twitter feed even if deleted will stand in court.

It would spare him from endless future opportunities to embarrass himself, and would of course leave him looking like the victim.

If the CIA wants to stop this despot, they need to leak his tax returns (plus Kushner's) and any other incriminating documents. Besides which, he's the president - and we deserve to see them.
