Donald Trump Has A Tech Conference





So, there was a to-do with PEOTUS Donald Trump and many members of the Technology tribe today, but the torch of Twitter was notoriously absent--and it might have to do with a Hillary Clinton emoji that never happened.  This is a really weird story--Trump wanted a little bitty icon that implied Clinton was corrupt. And a platform that has let some alt-right folks get away with who knows what, decided that fake-memeing HRC was just a bridge too far. It is kind of weird that the excuse for Twitter not being at the tech conference table was that the table was only so big, but somehow, three of Trump's kids and one notable in-law were right there.

The table was plenty big, it's just Trump's outlook got small.
