Democracy Dies in Darkness
On Friday thousands of Trump supporters tweeted out: “I Hired Donald Trump to Fire People Like Yovanovitch.”
This was after Yovanovitch testified before the Schiff sham and admitted she did not speak with President Trump == EVER — and that she cannot think of a single crime he committed.
However, the Democrat fake news media ran with headlines that her testimony was devastating.
Later in the day Twitter deleted accounts that tweeted the phrase.
Anything to help Democrats.
Journalists don't want you to know that you agree with the sentiment "I hired Donald Trump to fire people like Yovanovitch." Apparently only bots tweet it out. Right.

Buzzfeed reported:
“The phrase “I hired Donald Trump to fire people like Yovanovitch” trended on Twitter on Friday morning as Marie Yovanovitch, former US ambassador to Ukraine, testified in front of the impeachment inquiry held by the House Intelligence Committee. And while it may have seemed like a spontaneous outcry from the president’s supporters, the phrase has spread at a rate consistent with the coordinated inauthentic behavior expected from a network of bots or sock puppet accounts.
To be sure, many human users are sharing the phrase, including Donald Trump Jr., who tweeted a version of the phrase an hour after the first tweet surfaced: “America hired @realDonaldTrump to fire people like the first three witnesses we’ve seen. Career government bureaucrats and nothing more.”
The way the phrase has spread does not appear to be completely authentic. At least 7,320 tweets (including retweets) were posted that included the words posted in the first 45 minutes, according to an analysis conducted by BuzzFeed News. Within that time period, 83 accounts tweeted or retweeted the phrase over 10 times each.
A representative for Twitter told BuzzFeed News that the company was looking into whether the activity was coordinated. Later in the day, several accounts in BuzzFeed News’ data set were suspended.
