Trump follows several people, including former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, and retired pro golfer Gary Player. Though most of his followers are political figures, Trump does follow a few show business personalities as well. In addition to Manigault-Newman, Trump also follows NFL superstar Tom Brady and Lynette Hardaway.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Corey_Lewandowski\"><\/span>Corey Lewandowski<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski has called the president-elect the Ernest Hemingway of Twitter. The famous author of a book with 100 million followers also followed Trump on Twitter. Corey Lewandowski&#8217;s followers include Trump and other Republicans. Lewandowski is a prankster who once grabbed the arm of Michelle Fields, a former Breitbart reporter. He was also a member of Sacha Baron Cohen&#8217;s prank show, &#8220;Who is America?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The former Trump campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, is a close friend of the president. Lewandowski served as Trump&#8217;s first campaign manager during the election. However, he was fired before the 2016 Republican convention. Lewandowski regained prominence during the years Trump has been in the White House, becoming a key outside adviser and surrogate. Today, he oversees the Make America Great Again Action super PAC.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reince_Priebus\"><\/span>Reince Priebus<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first question to ask is why is Trump following Reince Priebus on Twitter. Priebus was a top adviser in the Trump White House. He has also been feuding with Bannon and his son, Jared Kushner, who have less conservative ties. In addition, many longtime Trump supporters never warmed to Priebus. Despite this, Priebus remained on the job and became the chief architect of President Donald Trump&#8217;s effort to repeal Obamacare, a key part of which was stalled in the early morning hours Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the tensions, Priebus and Trump remain close on social media. While both of them are on Twitter, the President is remarking on their contrasting philosophies and approaches. Priebus&#8217; tweets have made him a target for ridicule. The former New York public relations exec, Arthur Schwartz, has since retracted his tweets accusing Reince Priebus of extramarital affair. &#8220;Hey @Reince45. Oops. I&#8217;m not hiring you now,&#8221; reads one of Schwartz&#8217;s tweets.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lynette_Hardaway\"><\/span>Lynette Hardaway<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s campaign manager, Lynette Hardaway, has made headlines over her controversial follow on Twitter. The former Democrat jumped ship after she concluded that Democrats were not doing their black constituents any good. The campaign hired Hardaway and her sister, Rochelle Richardson, to do some rallying. The two women also went on a &#8220;Women&#8217;s Empowerment Tour,&#8221; which was funded by sources they would not reveal.<\/p>\n<p>Like Richardson, Hardaway and Richardson, a popular YouTube channel, are pro-Trump activists. They have gained enormous online followings during the 2016 presidential election. Hardaway, known as &#8220;Diamond,&#8221; attacks critics in lengthy rants while Silk Richardson chants affirmatively. In the past, Hardaway has targeted a range of opponents in her videos, including Ted Cruz and the National Review. Since the new algorithm, the channel has stopped notifying followers of new videos and posts.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rochelle_Richardson\"><\/span>Rochelle Richardson<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>President Donald Trump has met with YouTube stars Diamond and Silk, two social media activists who rose to fame during the 2016 presidential campaign. They have extensive media empires and frequently appear on Fox News talk shows. Richardson and Hardaway are trying to convince Independents and Democrats to support Trump. Earlier this week, they both appeared at a campaign rally with Trump and praised him. But it is unclear if they will make a difference.<\/p>\n<p>According to their Twitter accounts, Donald Trump follows 41 accounts, including family members, employees, and Trump properties. The only other account he follows is a black video blogger, @DiamondandSilk. The handle is a joint effort by two sisters from the South, Lynette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson. The sisters first started making videos in 2014, and have been following each other ever since.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Piers_Morgan\"><\/span>Piers Morgan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to reports, CNN personality Piers Morgan unfollowed Donald Trump on Twitter. Trump has been a longtime friend of Morgan. He has also worked on the Apprentice show and has been critical of Trump on numerous occasions, including over the coronavirus. But it appears that Morgan has had enough. This is what he had to say in response to a Daily Mail article. Here&#8217;s a closer look at what happened.<\/p>\n<p>During the recent coronavirus crisis, Piers Morgan was one of the first people to challenge the president on his tweeting habits. Piers Morgan has even been criticized by members of parliament and public health officials in the United Kingdom. The interviewer has been called uninvited and uncomfortable to watch. In response, the president has denied following him on Twitter, but Morgan&#8217;s tweeting about the outbreak has left critics fuming.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bernie_Sanders\"><\/span>Bernie Sanders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have a Twitter account, you have likely seen that Donald Trump follows Bernie Sanders. This is understandable, since the two candidates have polar opposite views on many issues. But what&#8217;s so disturbing about Sanders&#8217;s Twitter account is that he has no tolerance for dissent and utter contempt for opposing views. The following article explores the politics behind Sanders&#8217; Twitter account and why he has so many detractors.<\/p>\n<p>In a new survey, Bloomberg reveals that Americans follow the Democratic Party on Twitter, and that they are 11 points less likely to name Biden as their first choice than they do to name Elizabeth Warren. But even if you don&#8217;t consider that the poll was commissioned by Bloomberg, it still shows that Trump is increasingly disliking Democratic voters on Twitter. Among those who follow Sanders on Twitter, he is only followed by two percent of their followers, a number that is much higher than the national average.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"417\" height=\"233\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K2q4diRqdmw\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who Does Trump Follow on Twitter?
