It is not just teenagers and ordinary citizens who have social media beefs. The leaders of countries now get down and dirty on social media. Maybe this trend had been started by newly elected president Donald Trump. He is a frequent user of the Twitter network and can be seen on there almost daily. This included an exchange of tweets between Trump and Mexico’s president Enrique Peña Nieto. It started with Trump threat of going through a building a wall on the Mexico border.
