I respond to his tweets all of the time, and some people I follow have gotten blocked, but I haven't. I'm a little worried because although I'm usually civil and rational, I did post a video from the South Park episode where a Trump-like guy was Prime Minister of Canada. I'd forgotten how filthy it was until I posted it.

There are much better ways to deal with Trump than letting yourself be trolled.

Labor unions for example.

Or any other local organizing.

plays a part in us unknowns.

Cpl months ago found article by lawyer's that said he could block on Twitter because tweets were available on other venues. That's now changed...
