President Donald Trump’s crackdown on Twitter may have an unintended effect — hampering the marketing of some of his administration’s signature efforts

may have an unintended effect — hampering the marketing of some of his administration’s signature efforts, from Army recruiting to anti-vaping campaigns.executive order

The Army says the digital effort is working, and now their marketing wing is trying to protect it, with staffers tracking down data to justify its spending on social ads. DOJ could decide to allow some or all of the advertising, but the potential bureaucratic hurdles raised by the order are adding uncertainty to federal efforts to embrace modern means of communicating. And if the Trump administration does make good on the president’s threat, those who’ve run branches of the United States military say it could imperil a much-needed push to keep the ranks filled.

And this order in particular may have trouble standing up to scrutiny. Kenneth Mayer, a professor of political science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and an expert in executive orders, called the language “complete gobbledygook.”

Trump isn't smart enough to consider 'unintended consequences'. Cause and Effect is WAY beyond Trump's capabilities.

By signature efforts do you mean concentration camps, Nazism, gassing peaceful protestors, Racism, paranoid fear mongering, firing as many people who work for him as possible, botching a global pandemic response, retaliation, being an a-hole all the time & failing to do his job?

Lol sorry army you can’t prey on Americans on fb anymore wooops that backfired

How could a man with no experience and who dislikes all of our institutions become president? Sure, I don't like him but he is incompetent. I voted for Hillary because I thought she was competent. Would you want a doctor with no experience?

tRUmps only “signature effort” is being a liar.

Hahahah realDonaldTrump is to stupid to réalisé trying to stop someone else would actually hamper his own efforts

No, it doesn't

Trump, ever the intelligent one, is attacking the single biggest tool he has to work with. This is like FDR attacking radios
