Photos: President Trump blasts the Twitter employee who took down his account for 11 minutes

An employee at Twitter who was leaving their customer service job at the company deliberately deleted the profile of the most powerful man on the planet in a mischievous act on their last day of work.

President Donald Trump's Twitter account disappeared for 11 minutes on Thursday evening after the rogue employee at the social networking company removed the entire profile.

The sabotage took place shortly before 7 p.m. on Thursday when social media reports surfaced that the president's personal account @realdonaldtrump was unavailable, providing the error message that the user 'does not exist.'

After a brief investigation Twitter owned up and took responsibility for the outage.

In a tweeted statement, the company said Trump's account was 'inadvertently deactivated due to human error' by one of its employees.
