Twitter has a message for disgaraced ex-congressman and sex offender Anthony Weiner: just don’t.
According to the New York Post, Weiner returned to Twitter after a 9-year absence and dropped a Twitter poll to test the waters. It probably didn’t go how he had hoped, but it went exactly as you would expect.
“The 57-year-old tweeted on Wednesday for the first time in nine years, asking for tips on making a social media comeback from followers — who solidly agreed that he should just stay away,” NYP reports.
“Advice for returning to Twitter,” Weiner tweeted, along with the social media sites’ poll button feature.

The results were overwhelmingly in favor of “Just Don’t,” with 63% with nearly 7,500 votes cast.
As a reminder from the New York Post: “Weiner was sentenced to nearly two years in prison in September 2017 for sexting with a 15-year-old girl from North Carolina — the last straw for his long-suffering wife, Huma Abedin, former vice chair Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.”
So, yeah — just don’t.
