Trolling Trump: The Easiest Way To Create New, High-Profile Democratic Politicians/Celebrities

Believe it or not, the Democratic Party has just been handed a gigantic gift from Donald Trump.

Donald Trump has kindly volunteered to make any Democrat into a media superstar. How? All they have to do is TROLL him!

We all know that Donald Trump is incapable of resisting a twitter PISSING CONTEST with anybody, no matter how small. So, if any Democrat wants to become famous, all they have to do is get under his skin. Get him into a pissing contest! The idea of 'not punching down' is something he's incapable of understanding. ANYBODY who gets under his skin, no matter how small...(Alec Baldwin on SNL, Jon Stewart, the Vanity Fair food critic!)...gets a high profile answer from THE PRESIDENT!

So, all any Democratic Party politician who wants to become a media icon has to do is INSULT HIM when he does something stupid or corrupt (which will be often). He'll insult them back in a petty, spontaneous tweet, full of grammatical errors. The Democrat should then answer his insult with their own tweets, which are well thought out, and full of sensible policy points. (In fact, the Democrat could probably write out the rebuttal in advance. Trumps tweets are not exactly unpredictable.) Then, just keep the pissing contest going!

Trump: Childish tweet
Democrat: Sensible yet insulting response, full of facts and data
Trump: Childish tweet again...
Democrat: Sensible yet insulting response, full of facts and data...

We'll be creating high profile Democratic politicians by the bushel, all of whom got their start by kicking the orange StayPuffed Marshmallow Man in the shins.

Step right up! Who wants to be the first DAVID to bring down CHEETO GOLIATH with a well aimed TWEET?



EDIT:
I nominate AL FRANKEN to be the FIRST Democratic politician to take advantage of the new Troll-The-Trump policy. He's got the wit to pull it off, and he's used to trolling right-wing media personalities, like Limbaugh and O'Reilley.


AL FRANKEN: Please TROLL-THE-TRUMP!

... as I mentioned in another thread, Trump's inability to stop Tweeting and reacting to the smallest things, looks like it's gonna be a blessing (for want of a better word).

AL FRANKEN!

He's got the wit to pull it off in an entertaining way. And he's used to trolling right wing media personalities like Limbaugh and O'Reilley.
