Russian Bots following Trumpy's twitter (30 replies in four seconds????)

Way more sophisticated than you think.

So I was on twitter, and went to see what crap trump has tweeted.

He had just tweeted out something 4 SECONDS ago, according to twitter.

In that four second period. 30 people had replied, with quite long sentences.

I mean come on now.

30 replies in four seconds. ?????

4 replies

But they basically all said the same, with different wording.

I mean think of time, 4 seconds, to do a reply you have to click on the reply button, write your message and then click
send.

It's all bots and its still allowed.

crazy.

In fact, they are so in tune with him that they already have their tweets pre-written, ready to go at a moment's notice.
