Question regarding Twitter

[Catherine Vincent]

I follow Trump...not because I like him, of course. Whenever he sends out a tweet, this guy Ed Krassenstein is the first reply... most times. How does he do it?

1. During the campaign the first response usually had a Pepe the Frog avatar

Did not know if it’s the same “person”.

My guess to your question is that it’s a bot.

2. Ed is not a bot.

He and his brother are resisters. They stay on top of things.

3. No life

[Fla Dem]

4. I know, I've often wondered how he and his brother manage to always be the top posters.

They must be continually on their phones. While I appreciate their resistance to the orange menace, I wonder if they have a life beyond twitter.

5. It has something to do with the people you follow

and maybe how often you interact with their tweets. If you look at the post times, they are not all in chronological order.

Trump supporters probably see very different posts at the top of his tweets.

6. Ed and his brother voluntarily wade the cesspool so the rest of us don't have to

[JuJuYoshida]

7. my advice: don't follow Trump

[Catherine Vincent]

8. I like to read his idiotic tweets

They make me laugh.

[Skittles]

9. they feed his fucking ego

you should be sickened, not amused

[liberaltrucker]

12. I dunno, if he reads some of the replies.....

[Totally Tunsie]

11. He's posted on DU also.

[Catherine Vincent]

13. They are suspended now

Don't know if it's temporary or permanent.

[PunkinPi]

14. Seems to be permanent...

Link to tweet

Twitter just permanently banned brothers Ed and Brian Krassenstein. The #Resistance duo allegedly operated fake accounts and paid to artificially increase their Twitter audiences.
