Trouble installing TextBlob with pip

Solution 1:

This is an error with the newest version of pip. If you have recently updated pip and are having this issue, here is what worked for me (based on https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/7209):

python -m pip uninstall pip
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python get-pip.py --user
python -m pip install --user textblob

This uninstalls and reinstalls pip using --user.
