Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump clearly loves Twitter. In the past 24 hours, he’s tweeted more than 35 times — a mix of insults hurled at Ted Cruz, poll number updates and shout-outs to supporters. Trump seems to favor the old-school way of manually quoting a tweet instead of using Twitter’s more refined “Quote Tweet” feature, sometimes adding his own comments to the end.

Now, thanks to the media outlet Fusion, we’ll get some more information about who exactly Trump is retweeting. They’ve set up a Twitter bot, @TrumpRetweeps, that tweets out the bio of every account retweeted by @realDonaldTrump. Here’s a sample of who he’s featured so far.

The official Twitter profile for Donald J. Trump. #Facebook: https://t.co/JJkvW4neKZ #Instagram: https://t.co/8cnWEuBjFC Someone thirsty for followers: follow me! Trump doesn’t exactly have the best track record on who he decides to retweet — and there’s still a bit of mystery as to who exactly has the reins to his account. In once recent instance, he retweeted an apparent neo-Nazi supporter. #PoliticalCorrectness is killing this country. It has to be stopped. #WhiteGenocide is real. Wake up! #Trump2016
#AltRight ✠ In case you were wondering, Twitter users can only tweet 2,400 times per day — and retweets are included in that count, according to Twitter’s support team. So that means there’s a daily ceiling in case Trump wants to go off on a truly epic Twitter rant.
