U.S. adult Twitter users are younger and more likely to be Democrats than the general public. Most users rarely tweet, but the most prolific 10% create 80% of tweets from adult U.S. users

I do find that information interesting.  I heard Rush talk about it.  First, are there any normal people who regularly tweet?  Second, how many fake twitter accounts are there?  

I might be a twitter user, but mostly I just follow certain people to get news.  I rarely tweet myself.  I come across a lot of news I wouldn't otherwise see while minimizing the amount of leftist crap I see.  I figure most of the people actually tweeting are celebrities or notable people, news people, and politicians.  

Here are some of the people I follow.  There are a few others for gun stuff or sports.  
AWR Hawkins (Breitbart writer)
Paul Joseph Watson
The Babylon Bee
Steven Crowder
Rep. Dan Crenshaw
Ted Cruz
I've Pet That Dog
Franklin Graham
John Stossel
Senator Rand Paul
James O'Keefe
Gun Facts
John R Lott Jr.
Sean Spicier
Tom Gresham
Ken Webster Jr
Donald J. Trump
Michelle Malkin

I've Pet That Dog is a young girl who posts pictures every day of different dogs she meets and pets.  I figure it is part of the nicer side of Twitter.

My list is pretty short, I mainly follow a few people for Q posts, news on 8Kun coming online. Its pretty funny how they are usually 2-3 days ahead of the news cycle, if not more.
