Senate GOP's Iran letter sparks American outrage, #47Traitors Twitter trend
Twitter has turned on the nation’s 47 traitors.
Outraged Americans on Tuesday blasted the overwhelming majority of Senate Republicans for sending a letter to Iran’s leaders, sparking a top trending #47Traitors hashtag on the social media site following the Daily News’ front-page coverage of the unprecedented missive.
“We have met the enemy, and they are ours. #47Traitors,” user @Normsmusic of California wrote.
“Judas got thirty pieces of silver. What did you get? @SenJohnMcCain #47Traitors,” New Jersey resident @annmariepoli added.
Others took to social media to individually list the renegade lawmakers who sent an open letter to Iran’s leaders warning them that a future President “could revoke” any nuclear deal not approved by Congress.
The News condemned the dangerous treachery in Tuesday’s scathing editorial — and a chorus of patriots chimed in.
“These are the faces of #47Traitors. Make no mistake, these leaders are risking U.S. #NatSecurity,” @southerntalker fumed.
The #47Traitors hashtag Tuesday morning made the Top 10 trending list on Twitter, along with #IranLetter. It was bumped to No. 1 shortly before 10 a.m.
The News’ coverage was shared on several national news outlets, including MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” talk show.
