This has probably been asked before-

but, I don't recall seeing a thread on it.

I wonder why Donald Trump, or his kid, ever seem to read the responses to their tweets?

Reading replies, it seems like those two would have an idea of how hated they are-

But now that a judge has ruled he can't, he just won't read them anymore.

Also - Spanky has a serious case of Conformational Bias and would skip right past any tweet responses he doesn't like and that don't kiss his fat ass.

I couldn't find ANY that agreed with him on the one thread I read. And there are hundreds, or more.
