Didn't vote for him. Think he's a vile human being. Disagree with him on trade, the environment, immigration and so on, but I do follow him. The man affects my day to day more than any politician, so even though he's a blowhard I need to see what's he's up to from the source.

Do you follow him on Twitter?

Nope. I can see his tweets without following him. All the man cares about his that people worship him, I won't be another number that makes him feel better about himself.

I don't, but I don't really see why it's a problem if you do?

Edit: there's an argument to be made about follower count I suppose?

Every tweet gets quotes on Twitter or posted here immediately and then shows up on the Era new thread bots so I don't need to

He just posts propaganda, literal lies, on a daily basis. There is no value in following him unless you're a reporter or something.

Nope, refuse to inflate his ego. Will click through his tweets if something egregious is retweeted. Then my whole day feels ruined at how often he posts vile hot garbage.

Nope. As soon as he took over the official president twitter account, I unfollowed. Remember how Twitter made a mistake and made anyone that followed Obama, follow Trump? I had to unfollow Trump again. It doesn't mean that I don't see a lot of his tweets via retweet.

We all essentially follow him on Twitter even if we don't literally follow him or, hell, even have a Twitter.

No. Anytime he says something stupid (everytime he breathes) someone will just post the really vile shit here so why give him the numbers?

Edit: lol prepare for these criticism, entremet. Oh too late.

OP why in the world would you do that? His tweets are so inflammatory theyre on the news everyday. Dont inflate his ego with those follower numbers.

No way, that's like the fucking anti-Christmas for a twitter feed.

I used to for the entertainment factor but his reprehensible behaviour stopped being funny a long time ago.

The only time I ever visit his twitter is to check if a tweet is real. Maybe once or twice a month.

Also; I don't have a twitter account so I can't follow him.

No, don't see the point. Pretty much everything he says is upsetting so I'd rather not see it in my timeline. It's going to show up on the news anyway.

You're asking the people who hate Trump.....if they follow Trump......you may as well close the topic

Yep same here lol.

I get news from his tweets already here so I don't need to follow his shitty tweets.
I don't follow him either, but browsing his Twitter every now and then (mostly just to confirm tweets are real, as sometimes they seem fake... never are though), it's pretty shocking the amount of terrible things that are tweeted out by the President of the US that don't actually make the rounds.

No, I have him blocked. But so many people engage with him, even to criticize his tweets, it makes it very hard to annoy.

Not a Twitter user, but I do every once in a while just look at his Twitter. There's plenty on there that doesn't make headlines that's still ridiculous/crazy/etc.
