Twitter Could Double It's Character Limit

Twitter has divided it's users over-night, after announcing they'll be trialing a doubled character limit

Currently, most users only have 140 characters in which to fit their tweet into, but now the social network has revealed a small handful will have 280 characters to play with.

Can’t fit your Tweet into 140 characters? 🤔

We’re trying something new with a small group, and increasing the character limit to 280! Excited about the possibilities? Read our blog to find out how it all adds up. 👇

Needless to say, the people who are least happy about the change are Twitter's own users, with one particular person the centre of attention.

Twitter: We're introducing soon.

Trump:

Please don't tell Trump 😩

Did Twitter really not think this thing through? Don't give Donald Trump extra space to start wars or embarrass us 🤦🏻‍♀️

Twitter is increasing the character limit to 280 which means Trump will have twice the room to say four times as many idiotic statements.
