Most of my writing is about the Trump administration. In fact, my mandate from Pacific Standard is “Trump and the law.” On Twitter, the bulk of my recent follower growth and new relationships with others in the politico-legal sphere have come out of responding quickly when the president tweets and engaging the threads of conversation that flow from those tweets.
So when President Donald Trump blocked me in June, apparently for suggesting that Russia influenced the outcome of the 2016 election, he harmed me professionally. Even though I knew @realDonaldTrump was important to my career, it still took me at least a few days to recognize how being blocked by the president on Twitter would affect me as a public intellectual.

> “as a public intellectual.”
Oh puleeeze. <
What the heck is wrong with that? My business card describes me as a “Worldwide Mastermind”. But it is odd that I haven’t got any job offers lately.
I had no idea that he was American-born. I thought Haw Haw was a German well who spoke English very well.

GAYDAR ALERT!
Ugh! Ugly on the outside as well...
Hahahaha. Suing the president because he blocked her on his twitter account? That wont take long to get thrown out of court.
Was she smart enough to pass the bar?
Is she pretty enough to be a full time fashion model?
It seems doubtful to me with her background that she never heard of the Harry S Truman quote— if you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.
The liberal ethos is that in a deregulated Reagenesque limited government environment, these millenials are out of a job. Being a government bureaucrat is what they have been led to aspire to do, and have been trained to do from primary school onwards. Now without a track record of anything but bureaucracy and promoting bureaucracy, and pumped up by decades of receiving trophies for participation, they attack the ostensible reason for their failure as further self promotion for landing a cushy liberal job in a liberal non-profit or a liberal foundation. Yoo hoo, over here, I am an uber-liberal with all the right enemies! Pick meeee!! pleeeeese!!!
If your mind is worldwide, you may want to focus it down a little.
Hey Becky, you Twit:
How does Trump blocking you from posting your lying, obnoxious propaganda on his twitter feed keep you from READING his twitter feed and writing articles for your employer or posting your idiocies on your own Twitter feed?
You are only upset that other people reading TRUMP’s twitter feed can’t directly see your B.S. Propaganda.
iow... trolling
I have a rule that 2-last name, public intellectual, lesbians get automatically blocked
Which is "harassment", a behavior that is against Twitter's Terms Of Service.
Twitter will suspend a Trump supporter for such behavior.
so, if someone is blocked on twitter, they can’t read other posts?
is this author actually admitting that his entire career is built on harassing the President?
This is a joke, Right?
So, Trump bashing 24/7 is a career?
