It may well be the best way to get his message out to the people without the enemedia filter; don’t underestimate that impact. The enemedia started crapping their pants when Trump started off his campaign with the simple message that the media is a bunch of liars; they completely evacuated their bowels when he went on to win.

Remember Megyn Kelly thought it was so important that she could have a role in influencing the future? NOT!

No, but it’s unprofessional and unPresidential to do such things, frankly.

Frankly I hope he ignores advice from people like you and George and stays completely unprofessional and unpresidential. It's about time we had an unpresident.

What was the landslide?

I stated, NOT the electoral, but the popular vote is razor-thin.

Shoe on the other foot, you’d be saying exactly this. Admit it. It does us no good to be in denial that we are in constant danger of losing again. Thank God we won both houses to boot. But again, razor-thin lead in the Senate - that sums it up.

As for unseemly? Damn right. We need some dignity again and this is unprofessional, period. It smacks of teeny-boppers all hunched down over their “phones” worried about how cool they are with their devices and thinking they have so many “friends” even though they can’t have a normal conversation with real people.

Never mind he seemed to hold back on this silliness the last few weeks. So much the better.

Get with it. Twitter and other such outlets are around and heavily used. Get used to it.

You entirely miss the point. First, I specified NOT the electoral vote. Clearly he either lost the popular, or barely won it.

That means there are LOTS of angry people ready to mobilize and can easily defeat us next time (2018, for starters). We are not run-away winners. (Same as Uhbama - not a run-away, and lost houses in the process.)

This is not the Reagan era, either in the way Trump acts or the way he wins. Stop pretending it is, people. There is LOTS to be done. Lots of constant fighting home-grown communists. It ain’t over, as 1 person posted from YouTube.

Again, missing the point.

“Get with it” - which BTW will be passe in a few more years.

So, you don’t mind him constantly looking at his phone and constantly wasting time typing every thing that comes to his head? I sure hate my niece doing it.

There are a whole lot of time-wasting people out there because of this very technology. It’s a waste.

Obama has been using Twitter to antagonize his detractors from the very beginning. Whatever Trump may do with it, will be no worse than Obama.

Getting the truth out is hardly a waste of time.

I don’t mean to speak for you, but you do sound satisfied with how Trump’s stories come out through the regular press.

I don’t. Without his ‘the New York Times without the bias’ device he would surely been rolled by the MSM and lost the primary, let alone the election.

Remember how the Left trashed Republicans using the line they were more savvy on the Internet?

Now they’re trashing us for being on the internet.

Like it or not folks, this gives U.S. citizens direct access to the president.

We live in amazing times.

Maybe not an apology but certainly apologetic.

If Obama used Twitter, the media would be kissing his ass about how cool and up-to-date he was with social media.

The landslide was necessary in order to win at all.

Once you remove the fraudulent votes, it was solid popular vote win and probably more so, depending.

HOW many illegals voted again?

And Trump’s communication directly to the people is the reason that he was able to organize and get his message out enough for us to overcome the fraud. Don’t cut him off from that.

I don’t know what is wrong with these NYTs people, Trump didn’t retreat from anything during his interview! They are still up go their old tricks and just don’t get it, they aren’t going to turn his supporters against him.
