I can't find the article but an economist was estimating Trump's worth to Twitter at almost $2 billion. So I can't say I'm surprised; he is the single best thing that has happened for their company in YEARS.

Worth noting that $2B is roughly 13% of Twitter's market cap. Fascinating to think how one person simply using your service is worth that much.
