Since December 2015, the automated Twitter account @EveryTrumpDonor has been tweeting, one by one, the names, hometowns, occupations and employers of people who contributed as little as $200 to Trump’s campaign. Each tweet follows the same formula: “I’m [name]. On [date] I gave $[donation] to @realDonaldTrump. I work as a [job] at [company].”

Donors’ personal information is publicly available from the Federal Election Commission. Journalists often use the FEC database to identify high-dollar donors and to spot trends — a gusher of cash from Wall Street bankers flowing to one candidate, for example.

Okay…reposting public FEC data is not “doxxing” in my book.

And, no, I’m not being hypocritical in the least because my home address, and (former) employer is in the FEC database because I gave money to Clinton.
