As hour after hour passed following the announcement that Corey Lewandowski had been fired as Donald Trump"s campaign manager, the presumptive Republican nominee went radio silent on Twitter.
Trump signed off from Twitter on Sunday night offering congratulations to U.S. Open champion golfer Dustin Johnson. He opened his Monday with an attempt to clarify his statement last Friday that the terrorist attack in Orlando, Florida, could have been avoided or made less deadly if more people inside the LGBT nightclub had been armed, after criticism from the NRA.

That tweet was at 6:24 a.m.
Since then, Trump hasn"t posted anything for nearly 12 hours (as of 6:00 p.m.), be it about Lewandowski or anything else. As a rough point of comparison, Trump tweeted a dozen times last Monday, and generally tweets several times per day, in addition to sporadic Facebook and Instagram posts.
Trump"s Facebook feed had three posts during that time, including a vow to build the wall on the Mexican border, ending "waste, fraud and abuse" at the Department of Veterans Affairs and a link to a Wall Street Journal article in which he hit Hillary Clinton and the current administration.
