a term used to describe the people who replied instantly to every Trump tweet. Because of the popularity of Trump’s account, these people were able to grow their audience relatively quickly from the period of 2016-2021. As Trump found his account suspended in 2021, these “reply guys” also saw their popularity dwindle, forcing them to step out of their comfort zone and into sharing actual content.
Ex.
User 1: “What happened to those Krassensteins anyway? Seemed like a cute reply-guy romance.”
User 2: “They got suspended for platform manipulation in 2019. I think they’re still dating, though.”
