Professional golfer Lexi Thompson announced that she would be taking “a break from social media” after receiving a slew of “hurtful” comments following a round of golf with President Trump.

The 24-year-old LPGA star shared a selfie on Instagram Sunday with a message that she would be stepping away from all her social media platforms for the time being after becoming “too involved with it.”

Lexi Thompson is, from everything I’ve heard, a very nice young woman. Whatever monsters were harassing her on the internet are major league A-holes as apparently are ALL American leftists.

Props to Lexi for walking away from social media.

The word liberal has been distorted beyond recognition.

Fascist should be what they are called.

If she can identify her harassers, she should sue them and the “social media” that let them do it.

It was just a round of golf. It wasn’t the end of the world. Good grief.

Yeah, but...
Orange man bad. And raciss. And reasons and stuff.
I wonder how soon Brie Larson and her, “Empowering women,” pals will run to defend her.

Yeah. Not happening.

Absent narcissism, the ‘social media’ mania would mostly vanish, and society in general would be the better for it.

Twitter has an awful lot of conservatives waging a good fight. It’s also good for us to be there since it’s the president’s main communication tool. I clearly see conservative ideas winning there over and over.

My advice would be to follow no more than 3 dozen or so and make sure they are a fair news source or a solid conservative voice.

I also follow both my senators and my representative

Don’t get hung up on people following you. It’s not a big deal
