That's weird. #BlockTheRealDonaldTrump does not exist on Twitter. How do we make it trend? (Original Post) librechik Jul 2017 OP
Well, it's there now. I just tweeted a tweet MineralMan Jul 2017 #1
Why would we do that, though? Seriously. Hortensis Jul 2017 #2
All you have to do is tweet it yourself. You make something "trend" by tapping into something people WhiskeyGrinder Jul 2017 #3
OK, that's what I did, and you found it. librechik Jul 2017 #5
You hope what isn't against the rules? WhiskeyGrinder Jul 2017 #7
err--some official folks might find it inciting to ask others to block someone else. Any clue? librechik Jul 2017 #10
No, he tweeted the hashtag you suggested. WhiskeyGrinder Jul 2017 #15
too long? I said Block and idjit's twitter handle. Edit suggestions? librechik Jul 2017 #9
I want to make a lot of people Block T-Rump and talk about it. librechik Jul 2017 #13
Then you need to communicate the value of blocking him. WhiskeyGrinder Jul 2017 #16
Here you go: MineralMan Jul 2017 #4
I knew I couldn't be the only one. Let's get T-Rump invisible on Twitter. librechik Jul 2017 #6
Well, I'm afraid that hashtag isn't going to do it. MineralMan Jul 2017 #8
well thanks--any suggestions on how to make it punchier, so to speak? librechik Jul 2017 #11
Nope. I don't actually tweet very often. MineralMan Jul 2017 #12
No. He harms himself and his Republican enablers with his intemperate, ill-considered tweets, tblue37 Jul 2017 #19

with #BlockTheRealDonaldTrump in it. That's all it takes to create a hashtag.

Now, go and make it trend by retweeting.
