For a few brief moments on LaruanThursday, Donald Trump's Twitter account was down. The Earth seemed to spin a little slower. Things got quieter, and tensions eased.
The account was back up in a matter of minutes, but for those few moments, all was right in the world. It does not appear as if the account was suspended.
UPDATE Nov. 2, 5:07 p.m. PT:Twitter claims the account was accidentally taken down by an employee.
