Whether you like Trump or not, you have to admit he pretty much has this ‘trolling’ thing MASTERED. Not saying this is necessarily a good or a bad thing, just that Trump knows how to get a rise out of people, especially on Twitter.
For example, yesterday after the DNC elected Tom Perez over Keith Ellison, Trump tweeted out his ‘congrats’:
Congratulations to Thomas Perez, who has just been named Chairman of the DNC. I could not be happier for him, or for the Republican Party!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 25, 2017
Ha!
Pretty standard Trump tweeting: snarky, sideways and taking a jab at someone. And as usual, the jab worked because Perez tried to troll back with fairly standard and boring Democratic blather:
Call me Tom. And don't get too happy. @keithellison and I, and Democrats united across the country, will be your worst nightmare. https://t.co/fu7WvLofrD
— Tom Perez (@TomPerez) February 25, 2017
Wha? His worse nightmare? In what way? Vagina hats and glitter glue are only so intimidating for so long, Tom.
And as can be expected, some Democrats were all excited about his response to Trump (imagine a tiny little blue fists shaking at once) BUT it would appear a lot of Democrats weren’t exactly thrilled with the DNC’s pick:
Yes, I'm sure Trump is shook by the "corporate cash first, working class last" strategy again.

Oopsie.
@DNC just sent a big FU 2 Independents (who # more than registered Dems) & progressives, confirming our #DemExited

And no matter how hard some Democrats tried to pretend this was a good thing …
Nah. Dems lost millions more today. Nothing to celebrate.

Someone else was a giant party pooper.
Heh.
Oh, one Democrat tried to get the party started:
From one Perez to another, let's get shit done!!! ✊️✊️✊️
— Perez (@ThePerezHilton) February 25, 2017

Didn’t work out so hot for him.
Never try to out-troll Trump.
