Serious question for the board. Why does DJT tweeting bother you?

How does his tweet affect your daily life?

I don't understand the melts.

He called my city and home a shite hole.

So there's that.

It's entertaining for me. I love his tweets. Bernie and Pocahontas tweets are also pretty good.

I think it is great but it could also create all sorts of trouble...for example he tweeted something about GM and their stock fell substantially for a few days...he is the president elect....his words effect people in many, many ways....I don't care what he does politically but I do hope he remembers what an incredibly important position he is in for the entire world....

Doesn't bother me, but it's cringeworthy. I'm surprised at how easily he's rustled.

Because he's the leader of the Free World now. Quit acting like a 14 year old girl and reacting to everything in the most childish way possible. Show some dignity, for frick's sake.

If you hold shares in NBC Universal then it has an impact because their stock devalues every time he criticizes them otherwise no impact

Depends. Generally no, we all know he is a thin-skinned loud-mouth moron who is a known liar. But it does bother me, and should everyone, when he tweets things that can move the market like Boeing. He does not need to shoot off at the mouth like that without some forethought.

Sure, some of it can be construed as "unpresidential" or "childish," but it isn't something to get bothered over.

Donald Trump speaks and writes in a distinctive tone that is different from many politicians and people in the public eye, and that's OK.

It doesn't bother me. It comes off immature at times which is not a trait you want to emit as the president.

I've had this discussion before. It's direct evidence that the MSM has conditioned us more than we're willing to admit. Had the tweeting (or equivalent) happened 20 years ago, we'd think nothing of it - applaud it, actually. It's just because we're not used to seeing a fearless leader taking it to the idiot sociopaths and rubbing their noses in it in full public view. It's the antidote to the liberal's weapon of choice - the "drive by". Formerly, they suffered no consequences for their mindless, irrational spewing. Now there's a price to pay. DJT is gonna drag their arse out into the sunshine for all the world to see and refute it 'til the cows come home.

There's a new sheriff in town.

Doesn't bother me one bit, he's anti-establishment politics through and through. That's exactly why I voted for him. It bothers the worthless career politicians regardless of party and it bothers crybaby liberals. Both are great thing and very much needed.

Obama was lauded by the media as "the first social media president" who "won the social media battle", "changing politics forever" by finding bold new ways to "connect with Americans".

What a difference a party affiliation makes.

I don't want to die in a nuclear holocaust. That's why.

Other than that, I am fine with it. The more he tweets, the less time he spends executing the powers of his office.

Not at all. He's using it to drive the narrative for the media. They hate it. But the word is getting to the people unfiltered.

I can't understand his thin-skinned responses when he feels compelled to add some petty personal attack. At some point he needs to begin to feel the weight of the office he is about to assume.
