A student at St. John's University, in New York, posted on Twitter a photo of another student's laptop featuring a sticker endorsing Donald Trump and threatened to "smash this bitch's computer" if 7,000 people retweeted the photo, The New York Daily News reported. The original tweet has been removed, but versions of the photo (such as above right) remain online.
