I'm constantly hearing republican congress people say 'I'm Not Following His Tweets'

I SAY BULLSHIT.

As long as they get their tax cuts, trump could do ANYTHING and they wouldn't criticize him.

If they aren't following his tweets, they are derelict in their duty or they are lying....i go with lying.

to which the questioner only has to say "i didn't ask if you were following him on twitter, here's his latest tweet, i'm showing it to you right now, do you have any comment?"

the dodge is older than the technology.

once upon a time, politicians would say "i didn't read the newspaper today" if there was a story they didn't want to talk about.
