> Um, the article states that he’s tweeted 11,000 times since his inauguration day, January 20, 2017. That was just over 1,000 days ago (I know, it seems a lot longer.) My rudimentary math skills show that he’s averaging about 11 tweets per day.

That’s over the entire time the nation has been afflicted with him. The rate has been increasing as the walls start to close in.

But to his adoring millions, these are people who need to be attacked.

What is striking is [who he follows on Twitter.](https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/11/02/us/politics/trump-twitter-disinformation.html)

Only 1 Congressman (Jim Jordan)  
8 accounts from his own business  
Conservative media, mostly Fox  
Current and former administration accounts  
a few others

Many of his retweets were from conspiracy theorists, of course those that he retweets often praise him or attack his enemies.

Bevins losing was an outlier because he was too much of an asshole for even the GOP to get elected - other than that, the Dems lost ground in KY.

Well, that Rand Paul puke made noises about “outing” the whistleblower. And miracle of miracles, it looks like the Russians heard his plea and did exactly that.  
JUST like the horse shit over “her emails” –which turned out to be a lie, but of COURSE the lie stuck and the final ultimate retraction by the rag NY Times was buried.

There was a story in the Washington Post that, due to I’m at work, couldn’t be opened. But the headline was that Republicans are angling to drag the Bidens into Trump’s impeachment hearings. Because their (Bidens) involvement in the BS seems to be that Trump wanted them investigated by Ukraine. Correction- he wanted Ukraine to declare them to be under investigation.

I’m all for the Former President being allowed to host a TV show from prison for the rest of his life (without possibility of parole). I’d like to see it make loads of money from advertisers, cable subscriptions, whatever. And all proceeds can go to those individuals has swindled over the years.
