The Koch Brothers' Twitter hashtag back fire

[MrScorpio]

The Koch's AFP spent some of their hard earned filthy lucre on Twiiter to sponsor the #16TrillionFail hashtag. However, it's not going as they planned, as the hashtag is being MOSTLY used AGAINST Ryan and the Republicans INSTEAD!

If you're on Twitter, feel free to join in… The Koch's have graciously paid the bill.

6. Yep!!!

11. Dumb question

How do you link your tweet to that particular hashtag?

[MrScorpio]

12. I'm sorry. I don't understand.

[eridani]

16. How do you get your tweet to appear under the #16trillion fail header--

--instead of on your own list of tweets?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

20. The hashtag automatically propagates it there.

It'll also be in your list of tweets. If you search for (discover) the #16trillionfail, then switch to the "all" view at the top, you should be able to find yours.

I hope this helps...I'm only a week old twitter person myself.

7. Noticed your words...

You are RIGHT.. not an "overwhelming" response by their "allies".

How many "good paying jobs" could have been created? So Kook Bros must be about power and not America.

Our food shelf use is up again last month, think how many families could have healthy meals?
I don't know how young families are "surviving". And THAT is why I get so furious with these "expletive Deleted"s.

8. Three down. How long do you think until they figure out it's not working?

Let's see.

#AreYouBetterOff. Failed.

#FailingAgenda. Failed.

#16TrillionFail. Failed.

How many more before they figure out trends on twitter?

9. Some of those remarks are brutally hilarious! nt

10. I'm on twitter, but don't understand hashtags. Do you just type in the hashtag, write & tweet?

[MrScorpio]

14. Yes, just add the hashtag to your tweet

If the hashtag is still in the top ten hashtag subject list, you'll see it on the left. This one is sponsored, which means that the Kochs actually paid money to put it at the top of the list instead of depending on frequency and popularity.

Click on the hashtag and it will search and list all of the tweets that contains it for separate view.

You'll share with people outside of your own twitter feed, so make sure that it's funny.

Funny, have to heart.

18. Thanks. I'll try to muster humor.
