Let Us All Tweet at President Trump to Legalize Online Poker on April 15th - Poker News

We are going on 6 years since Black Friday-- a day of sadness, a day of confusion and a day of angst for poker players in the land of the free.

It is now the frist time that we have a Presidential in the White House who:

- Is a Businessman
- Is public statement that he is open toward Online Pokers
- Is active on Twitter

Why not just come together all and blow up twitter and tweet toward President Jonald D. Trump to finally let it legalize, the online pokers.

We'll all just tweet, repost and retweet, i bet he end up seeing it.

I bet it so.

Who knows?

We might just flop a full house?

Here's a tweet 2 + 2ers could send to @realdonaldtrump

Mr. President, legalize the skill game of online poker, tax it, and use the money to help fund the health care plan.

I'm in. Let's do it.

I also pledge to get at least 10 non-poker players to tweet for us on April 15 as well.

This is actually a great idea and can work. To make it work the tweet has to have three lines.

1. Compliment trump and make him feel good
2. Take a shot at obama for shutting down online poker
3. Ask him to make online poker great again

Definitely most important thing to focus on. But you need repetition. We should get everyone to tweet him during the hours Fox and Friends is on every day in April.

Also we should mix in secondary tweets through the month talking about golf, walls and coal miners that just mention poker as an aside. I think after he gets the healthcare bill passed and cuts all the taxes and has the budget straightened out he will be looking for new projects and this can be his next project. If we get really serious we can have legalized poker in the US by the end of June.

Have to factor in his reading attention span though, better start off the tweet with something not subtle and in caps.

Actually ONE phone call from Shel Adelson to Trump cancels a gadzillion pro online poker tweets.

I thought legalizing poker was a states right. Isn't it legal on the federal level? Do you mean get us back in the international market? I thought we owed a country (forgot which one) money before we could enter the international online poker market.

What are these tweets really going to do? Remind Trump that Sessions and Adelson want to shut poker down again. Trump has so much on his mind, he might push this to the side. Unless some internet poker nerds start bothering him about it (his thoughts not mine, lol).

Tweet, call or write your state law makers about making online poker legal in your state.

I don't think Poker Stars, Full Tilt, and Party Poker thinks it's legal on the federal level.

It is pretty amazing we can't get a .us version and just make every person register with their SSN.

Then hold the site responsible for filling out a year end tax document on every player's +/- for tax purposes.
