It was a few minutes before 11 p.m. in Washington last Tuesday, and President Trump had a thought to share.
“FBI Director Comey was the best thing that ever happened to Hillary Clinton in that he gave her a free pass for many bad deeds!” he tweeted to his 28 million followers.
A determined few of them — the regulars — were waiting.
“He’s investigating you right now,” Jordan Uhl, a young executive at a start-up in the District, tweeted back to the president. “Do you realize that?”
“Says a lot that the sitting president is STILL crying about an election THAT HE WON,” freelance writer Mike P. Williams typed from London. “There’s something wrong with you; your skin’s so thin.”
And in Los Angeles, tech entrepreneur William LeGate scoffed: “Comey is the reason you got elected ... even you & your supporters know that.”
Trump has transformed the nation’s highest office through his bombastic Twitter habits. Even people who don’t follow him may be showered by the retweets of his 140-character thoughts or the news coverage they generate.
Most Twitter users, though, don’t bother to click on Trump’s individual tweets to see the thousands of replies each receives. If they did, they’d discover a little-known community: LeGate, Williams, Uhl and scores of other recurring names — the folks who’ve made a devout habit of talking back to the commander in chief on Twitter.
"I have a notification set up so that when Trump tweets, the lights on my phone flicker,” LeGate says. “I try to respond right away.”
It might sound like an absurd, self-indulgent or exhausting hobby. To Trump’s most dedicated Twitter rebutters, it feels more like a responsibility.

I see these cucks. They have prepared responses obviously, just waiting for Trump to tweet. They aren't even funny and get BTFO by randoms all the time.
They get very few likes. There is no growing resistance. It would be sad if they weren't such traitors.

I'd hate to agree with the trumpkins but this is just barely newsworthy in that they're journalistically documenting the social phenomenon of replying to the President on twitter. But on the other hand, it reeks of opinion piece, which as we all know are prohibited in the sticky.

A /pol/ thing is being completely unaware of GR7.

Oh, look what happened. :)

They're still doing it, too.

Holy shit, these are the people saying Trump has thin skin. People who can't see Twitter pop up without sperging out. Who is still paying for the media to be so against Trump?

God, I wish I were paid to hate people. Not everyone who expresses a negative opinion about something you like is being paid for it.
