Twitter has been under a lot of pressure to do something about Donald Trump's controversial tweets. The social media site says it is just trying to get the facts out there, but critics will accuse them of supporting misinformation and fachism if they don't make sure this functionality is in place. "The worst thing, i feel like you can do in these situations is fly by the seat of your pans," said Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.
