And click on the hashtag to find other tweets with it, then retweet those tweets.

I've never actually gotten a hashtag trending that I started but I think that is how it gets trending.

Post something like "Media spent more time talking about Hillary's e-mails this cycle than any policy issue. #EnoughWithTheDamnEmails".

Once you tweet it, click on the hashtag and retweet other tweets with the same hashtag.

Thanks for your help!
