Source: independent

Donald Trump has blocked a stage-4 cancer patient on Twitter after she criticised him via the social media platform.

Laura Packard, a small business owner from Las Vegas, Nevada, recently tweeted at the President, telling him to "count your rubles, file your resignation, call it a day".
