A troll has been described as someone who baits and bullies people online. US model Chrissy Teigen has recently apologised for trolling online. In a blog post, she reflected on "the crushing weight of regret for the things I've said in the past". David Weissman was a Trump supporter and a 'Make America Great Again' troll. He now describes himself as a 'former troll', who says those days are behind him and that he cast his vote in the US presidential elections last year for Biden. He describes the attraction of being a troll. "It was like you were in social media warfare. You're always fighting, belittling, name-calling. You wanted a reaction out of people."
