Politico: U.N news agency scrubs tweet calling on Americans abroad to 'end Trump'
The United Nations News Centre — the official U.N. news service — tweeted, then quickly pulled, a post that called for "8 million Americans abroad" to "stop Trump."
The tweet, published at 9:14 p.m. ET on Thursday, urged American expats to share a voter registration tool on the website of the activist organization Avaaz that states, "U.S. Citizens abroad could defeat Trump ... if they voted."
The Web page, titled "The October surprise that will end Trump," allows users to sign up for help registering to vote in the Nov. 8 presidential election and encourages them enlist their friends as well.

WNU Editor: So much for being an impartial news service. As for this promised UN investigation .... I have seen how these investigations are conducted when I was working at the UN .... my prediction (and it is an easy one) .... is that this is going to be swept under the rug.
U N must be guilty to fear Mr Trump
ReplyDeleteGood grief. The only purpose this will serve is to super-galvanize Trump supporters.
ReplyDeleteRussinSoCal,
ReplyDeleteI tend to agree. It as though Mrs. Clinton's supporters have become increasingly unhinged and desperate. This is but one example among many. While the official polls indicate a close race with Clinton leading slightly, I suspect the candidate's internal polls are painting a far bleaker picture for her. Operative word is "suspect." I don't really know but it would provide an explanation for the increasingly bizarre behavior being exhibited by team Clinton. Desperate people often in panic do bizarre things.
