Brain doesn't function as well when I'm sleepy.

I'd delete the dumb answer if I could figure out how. It used to be obvious how to do so.

FYI we're going to be making an update to the buttons in the not too distant future which will hopefully make this a little clearer.

(referring to the buttons on the bottom left of each post)

This was in the context of adding a post to one's Journal -- one of the Power button's options.

But it's reasonable to bet that he'll be making self-delete more transparent as well, as that question comes up a lot.

It’s also classless. No way the real Tim Walz would stoop this kind of Twitter meanness. Stop spreading BS like this.

For years there have been sites that let even those who can barely type mock up plausible-looking tweets with ease. Only if you can find them on Twitter or in a reliable archive can you be sure they're genuine.

It would have been talked about (or at least mentioned) on internet news sites. It also doesn't sound like something Walz would write. I couldn't find any post like this on Walz Twitter feed. Overall Ann Coulters comment wasn't up that long and was taken down mid-day due to the negative feedback.

She is not worth a response.

Perhaps everyone should just give the kid a break and move on. The incredible weight of the moment was overwhelming and his reaction was authentic but I don’t think either side should be spinning it.
