On Monday, Arizona Senator John McCain took to Twitter to ask followers for help, posting "we are only 74 Twitter followers away from 3M-spread the word & help us reach this big milestone!"
It backfired. Critics and Democrats used the Republican Senator's plea to take aim at him for supporting the GOP tax bill. They began using the hashtag #UnfollowMcCain#, claiming the bill mainly benefits large corporations and the wealthy. One tweeting: "Since you chose to care about only yourself and wealthy friends, I chose to unfollow."
Following his post, Senator McCain lost close to 20,000 Twitter followers.
