(14,915 posts)IE....I could tweet ' Crooked Hillary Eats Puppies' and Trump's account would hit the heart to 'like' my tweet, and he would then have 92 likes.

(10,406 posts)My followers are almost all Clinton followers and 48 of them follow Trump. Know thy enemy. ....I have considered following him to make it easier for me to make fun of his tweets, but I just couldn't bring myself to do that.

(2,510 posts)One of my Facebook friends tweeted Trump. LMAO
And Donald, the word you wanted is "Loose".
If there's a "lose cannon" in the race, I'm guessing it's going to be YOU.

(108,192 posts)Like so much about Twitter, the prevalence of fake accounts on the service is a strange and mostly pointless thing to think about. But because I gravitate toward these kind of thoughts sometimes, I ran a quick search to see which local politicians, media organizations, journalists, and columnists had the most following them.
Selling fake Twitter followers, odd as it may seem, is a multimillion-dollar business. Buyers include politicians wanting to project an image of wide support the fact Mitt Romneys account once jumped by 116,000 followers in a day is an example. Theyre social media managers at companies, seeking to impress their bosses. Theyre media organizations aiming to demonstrate wide reach, perhaps in an effort to appeal to advertisers.

(27,453 posts)I don't look at it much and never Tweet. However, I could see following Trump just for the appallingness of it.

Recently, since I've been tweeting and retweeting about the convention, I've picked up some more followers. I'm quite sure that they're other lefties who are interested in politics.
As a nobody guy like myself, over 1,300 followers is a hell of a lot. But then I follow a lot of people myself and these are people who have followed me back.
On Twitter, aside from celebs, the real winners are nude and semi-nude models. They attract a lot of creeps, I suppose. They probably block a lot of guys who do nothing except send them pics of their junk.
Twitter is nothing like the real world. I guess that's why Trump keeps posting his message their.
