ABC's "Bachelor in Paradise" normally focuses on backstabbing, sex, and intrigue, but now the reality show's Twitter has expanded to politics.
The verified @BachParadise account tweeted and later deleted a gif of contestant Raven Gates in a bikini attempting to perform a cannonball jump and included #Impeach45. That has been used by many who want Congress to impeach President Donald Trump, and it is unclear if it has any connection with the episode or to Gates' political views.
Anti-Trump Twitter users have rallied to the tweet in celebration.

While it is unclear why this happened, some believe an intern was just having some fun.

Some even considered taking a second look at the reality program.
Hmmm... maybe BIP is good after all

At least one Trump supporter decried the tweet.
