Anyone know if Twitter is acting on users calling for the assassination of president elect Trump? Twitter seems to be pretty aggressive at inferring violations of their policies when someone squabbles with an SJW favored party. Trump is prolific Twitter user with a lot of followers ... are they just supposed to look the other way and ignore all the public death threats?

"Someone should kill you." Or "I hope someone kills you." are not, by the way, death threats. A death threat would be, "I'm going to kill you."

That said, I'm only inferring the nature of the "threats" from your description, I don't make a habit of looking at politicians' twitter feeds.
