The goal of most tweets is to get shared and liked, but one St. John’s University student got way more than he was expecting for one photo he shared on Twitter.
Upon seeing a student with a Donald Trump “Make America Great Again” sticker on her laptop, Clifford Durand, aka @ockisdead, snapped a photo and posted it to Twitter with the caption “7000 retweets and I’ll smash this bitches computer.”
As with many things concerning Trump, things got ugly fast.

As you can see, the tweet racked up far more than 7,000 retweets.
But don’t worry – this girls’ laptop isn’t in danger as much as his reputation.
St. John’s addressed the issue via their official Twitter account.

God, some people can’t take a joke meant for the couple hundred followers he had.
Well, it’s been a crazy six hours for Cliff. He went viral, got in trouble with the school, and was set free.

This is exactly why I don’t talk politics on social media…or ever.
