Social Media Fail

Well now a big-time social media oops from the Governor of South Carolina.  Earlier today, she (or her staff) sent out a post on Instagram. Here’s the original post:

Seems fairly wonderful- right? Well, they connected it to twitter.  And as you should know now by, Twitter has a 140 character limit – so guess what that looked like?

Poor Governor, just trying to get her message out. Let’s just say she’s had some luck with this post going viral! Just not in the way that she wants!
