A couple hours before the big 2016 vice presidential debate, Donald Trump announced that he planned to live tweet it.
I will be watching the great Governor @Mike_Pence and live tweeting the VP debate tonight starting at 8:30pm est! Enjoy!
One could ask, might this distract from the VP candidates, Democrat Tim Kaine and Republican Mike Pence?
@realDonaldTrump Let him have one night to himself.
His campaign enlisted a squad of four aides to be with Trump while he tweeted the debate.

Yep, it is happening!
Here we go - Enjoy!
Both are looking good! Now we begin!
Trump gave the early edge to his guy Pence, was not impressed with Kaine's appearance.
.@mike_pence is doing a great job - so far, no contest!
"@Jnelson52722: @realDonaldTrump @Susiesentinel Kaine looks like an evil crook out of the Batman movies"
He used this opporunity as debate spectator to throw jabs at Kaine with some hashtag gusto #bigleaguetruth
.@timkaine is the ANTI-DEFENSE SENATOR. #VPDebate #BigLeagueTruth https://t.co/qWkvGFARA1
.@timkaine is wrong for defense: https://t.co/QN9qqoq1kH #BigLeagueTruth #VPDebate
And he had to plenty to tweet out about Clinton in ALL CAPS, too.

He's keeping it pretty cool, retweeting his followers and letting their emotion do the talking.
"@Gsimmons03Ginny: @realDonaldTrump ..Kaine is awful, Trump and Pence are the ticket..no more lies, we are ready to see America Great Again!
"@AnyoneTennis: @timkaine Cannot believe how often the moderator interrupts #Pence vs the other guy...so obvious @FoxNews" So true!
Trump calls it.
Mike Pence won big. We should all be proud of Mike!
