Who is TheTweetOfGod?
‘TheTweetOfGod’ is His holiness, personified on Twitter, and although the person behind this begun by tweeting the type of tweets you’d expect of such a character, recently He’s become rather political. The heavens were seemingly shaking when He saw that an Iranian wearing a MAGA hat tweeted that she was an #IranianForTrump. His holiness somehow saw this as blasphemy and tweeted to Iranians that she is “…making you look really stupid”.
