10,001st Reply Insulting Gleefully Corrupt Senator Causes Change of Heart — Now With REAL News

Florida Senator Clyde Gelmore was once called, “The Troll with No Soul.” Known for his acrid social media posts, Gelmore seemed impervious to criticism.

His comments always generated angry replies. He would “get ratioed” as the kids say. (Meaning he got more angry replies than likes.) But this week, while reading furious responses, something new happened.

“I did it to relax,” the senator said. “I’d sign off on another corporate bailout. Then I’d hit the keyboard to rub it in. I’d say something like, ‘The rich get to work, the poor whine on social media.’ Then I’d enjoy a brandy and chuckle as their futile, angry replies rolled in.”

Senator Gelmore paged through the document of responses printed by his staff.

“Look at them all. Thousands calling for my job, for my seat, for my head. So much anger, so much hate. I would laugh and laugh, until…”

Gelmore paused, took a deep breath, and gazed out his office window before continuing.

“Everything was normal after I read 10,000 comments. Contempt was giving way to boredom. I was about to move on.”

He sighed.
