Trump isn't actually introspective enough to do this. He honestly views himself as the hero and that "winning" these fights makes him look tough. The scary part is, that the right wing in this country actually believes that things like SNL or the media are out to get Trump.

Love it, but when she asked all people, democrats, independents, AND republicans to hold him accountable, a separate category should have been included in that....the media!! The media failed us during the primaries and general election. Please, media, do not fail us anymore...call this bastard out every. single. time! And, call him (and his surrogates) out hard...don't relent!!

If she "follows" him, does that mean that her twits also go to him? Or does he have to "follow" her in order to get her twits?

...because she added his twitter ID @RealDonaldTrump, he can see those tweets because he's personally mentioned. He just won't see any other of her tweets unless he follows her.

against the propaganda, BS and the real PTB behind the trumpfuhrerPOS-in-waiting who are 'feeding' him. Who? White supremacist bannon and the people who run our republic. The stupid asses who actually voted for this trumpfuhrerPOS-in-waiting just gave the PTB the edge they needed to install this POS as POTUS. NO ONE who can think critically is fooled out here. I couldn't have responded better. Hurray to this woman of immense heart and courage..............

She is on to something... I heard a caller on Thom Hartmann the other day suggest public ridicule for DFT everywhere he goes. Public mockery and laughter would get under his skin to the point that he would lose his shit. Thom agreed with the caller...there may be something to this. We all know how thin his orange skin is. He couldn't handle people not taking him seriously.

from Stephen KING, who *knows* SCARY when he writes it:

[font size=5]@StephenKing
Trump's tweets display hysteria, aggression, paranoia, insecurity. Politics aside, his mental state bears close watching.[/font]

http://news.groopspeak.com/a-woman-just-stood-up-to-trumps-latest-outburst-on-twitter-and-america-is-cheering-her-on/

Danielle MUSCATO’s 31 tweets responding to DRUMP’s Tweet complaining about Alec BALDWIN’s impersonation of him on Saturday Night Live:

Tweet #1: Jesus f-ing C, Donald TRUMP. You are the president-elect. Pick your f-ing battles, man. You’re embarrassing yourself.

#2: Alec BALDWIN’s impression isn’t “Sad.” You know what’s sad? In 7 wks you’ll be responsible for 330m lives & you can’t think of anything better to do than tweet at a comedy show. You know that actual lives are at stake, right? You’re pathetic.

#3: This is not a joke, Donald. Don’t you have anything better to do? Are you so narcissistic that a PARODY is your priority?

#4: Do you know how many trans people were murdered since Election Day? Do you know how many veterans killed themselves?

#5: Do you know how many children went to bed tonight without enough food to eat? Do you even care? What is *wrong* with you?!

#6: No, of course you don’t know those things. You don’t even know what a “blind trust,” is and you call yourself a businessman.

#7: You’re pathetic. You ran for prez for attention. You are a fake, a fraud. You never wanted to win anyway; we can all see it.

#8: You are not fooling anyone. You’re scared, and overwhelmed, and you have absolutely no idea what you’re doing. And it shows

#9: You think we’re all too polite, too aghast, to call you out. I see through you, Donny. I’m calling you out. You’re a joke.

#10: With every fiber of my being, I am disgusted by you. And you know what the real secret is? You’re disgusted by you, too.

#11: That’s why you surround yourself with gold, and beautiful women that you objectify. You know you’re a loser, so you try to

#12: make yourself feel better, feel successful, authoritative, with things, and money. You are an impostor. You are a fraud.

#13: I’m ashamed of you. The world is ashamed. You spout NONSENSE, millions of illegal voters?! Even you don’t believe it—absurd

#14: Do you think we’re stupid? You think we don’t know what you’re doing? Trying to control the narrative, get your followers

#15: to distrust the media, the polls, news reporters, so that they must turn to YOU for what’s true, what’s real? There’s a

#16: name for that. It’s “propaganda.” We know what you’re doing. We will not allow you to suppress votes with this nonsense.

#17: We will not allow you to trample our civil rights! We will not allow you to destroy the progress we’ve made! WE WILL RESIST

#18: I call upon progressives, Democrats, independents AND Republicans to #RESIST Donald TRUMP. #RESIST fascism, crony capitalism, hypocrisy!

#19: When Donald TRUMP “lies,” acknowledge and call out as propaganda! When he tests boundaries, acknowledge and call out as fascism! #RESIST

#20: We CANNOT “wait and see.” Donald TRUMP is telling us, here and now, what he is going to do. BELIEVE HIM.

#21: “Millions” of “illegal” votes is not a claim about reality, despite Donald TRUMP’s pretense. It is a warning; a threat. Pay attention – RESIST!

#22: Donald TRUMP is TELLING US he’ll suppress votes. Our democracy is at stake. We cannot wait, let him enact policy, then whine—We must resist

#23: Donald TRUMP tweets so we forget that his kids will run his company in a “blind trust”(!) while sitting in on diplomatic meetings.

#24: Donald TRUMP tweets so we forget that he is stacking his cabinet with the very same people he promised to remove from his influence.

#25: Donald TRUMP tweets so we ignore that he’s clueless at governance. The more outrageous his tweets, the harder it is for us to keep up.

#26: We see you, Donald. We know exactly what you’re doing & it’s not working on us. You’re a disgrace & you should be ashamed.

#27: The next 4 years will be brutal for me & my fellow civil rights activists. Not all of us will survive. But we will #RESIST.

#28: We will #RESIST til racist police are imprisoned. We will #RESIST til FULL equality for women. We will #RESIST. We are ready

#29: We will #RESIST until abortion is accessible to everyone who needs it. Until LGBTQ are safe & healthy, until PoC

#30: You can fight us on it—and you are, and you will. But you will lose. Because history is on our side. We may not live

#31: but we know we will win. We will fight you every step, so be ready. You can’t stop progress, no matter how hard you try.
