What are you going to do about it if he doesn't?

Just wondering.

Hope he doesn't until the MSM starts doing their jobs as they should.

This will never happen of course, so MAGA!

You made this thread before.

We get it, you think Americans should shut up and refrain from criticizing Trump.

He should continue tweeting however he should have KAC review the tweets prior to hitting send.

His response was messy and angry. He could've tweeeted the same general response but in a cleaner way. Her response to Streep was outstanding.

Why would any American want to limit a president from communicating directly to them?

Seems so counterproductive to the transparent government we all want. I want access to the president's thought process not barriers.

the same thing this board did for 8 years every time Obama said something

and Trump can tweet all he wants, but with each day, he is just proving how insecure he actually is and how unfit he truly is to be a real leader

Be embarrassed.

It's similar to the fact that I can't stop holocaust deniers from denying the holocaust, but I can be embarrassed that they deny the holocaust.

I don't mind. Tweet away. Just increases the likelihood that he'll say something stupid.

I think most people see thru his tweets. Its pretty simple. If you criticize him then he says you are a failure and will go after you. If you compliment him then he thinks you are the greatest thing since sliced bread.

If you criticize him in the morning then say something positive about him at lunch then something else negative at night, Trump's opinion of you will change 3 times in one day

Libs hate his twitter because it really chaps their asses to have their bs repudiated so quickly and thoroughly instead of letting the media signal boost their propaganda.

The only reason the MSM is pissed about Trump's twitter is because Trump drives the narrative and not the MSM.

Trump tweets at 3:30 AM for a reason. He beats the MSM dissemination of their narrative. It pisses MSM producers off because they no longer have control of the narrative. They have become lazy and used to either working with the White House or the White House falling in line with the daily narrative.

With Trump occupying the White House and with Trump's 20+ million social media followers, Trump now drives the narrative when he wants to.

I'm just going to keep making fun of him. His Twitter is like watching a living trainwreck. His presidency will be hilarious whenever it's not really sad.

Something else too.

Does the POTUS risk overexposure? I would say yes. Especially yes when the POTUS is given 1 hour long canned press conferences where in the end it just turns out to be a filibuster session. In other words a boring meaningless press conference where the point could have been made in 5 minutes and not an hour plus.

Obama ran into the problem during his first term. He was over exposed. Maybe if he wasn't so professorial and more the to the point he wouldn't have run into this problem.

I don't think Trump will runs into the problem of over exposure as long has he remains on point and halfway entertaining.

What kind of moronic question is that? I might say that your fat arse needs to put down the cheeseburgers but I'm not going to do anything about it if you don't.
