Donald Trump Plans to Continue Tweeting as President
Breitbart ^ | January 5, 2017 | Alex Swoyer

President-elect Donald Trump will continue his use of Twitter after he officially enters the White House later this month, according to incoming White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer.

“You know that he can drive a message and influence people in a way that hasn’t been done before,” Spicer stated while speaking at an event at the University of Chicago Institute of Politics on Wednesday.

Spicer explained that he does not get a memo when Trump is tweeting, but that the President-elect is a strategic thinker, adding, “He thinks about where things are going to end up.”

Trump, who has used Twitter during his campaign, has posted tweets during the middle of the night and often drives daily news coverage through his use of Twitter.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Spicer explained that the Trump administration will evaluate new methods of communication in addition to Trump’s use of Twitter.

The first really smart president in I don’t know how long. Captain Obvious paid him a visit, and he actually listened.

This by itself won’t bring perfection, but will set a much better national tone.

THIS will be the new White House Press Corps, and if Twitter tries to block it, the reinvigorated FCC will annihilate them.

May I humbly suggest daily leaflet airdrops into Paul Ryan's district?

If I were Twitter, I’d love this. Twitter was suffering before Trump started using it. He’s not the only politician who might want to say things on Twitter and get around the news organs.

It’s a good way to limit how dishonest they get. Whatever the spin, they can’t deny the initial tweet.

Good.

If that forked tongue slithering reptile, Schumer, and I say that with ALL DUE RESTECP, is against it, I’m for it.

I agree. We don’t need the Press, nor the White House Press Corps nor any of that partisan crap to hear the story.

If Twitter wants to remain viable, they’d damned well better not start censoring him. Or Hell to Pay, as Hillary would say.

The corrupt in D.C. and their disciples of deceit in the media can’t stand the fact the lying leftist media no longer controls the news.

It’s wonderful!

Why not? He renders the entire MSM spin machine irrelevant by doing it.

Why would he stop a winning strategy? Only liberals and not so bright Freepers want him to stop.

It’ll be fun to see how he treats the traitor press especially in interviews and press conferences.

I want to see some more trolling by Trump a la the klintoon rape victim conference.

Good! He can stay in touch with the people outside the GD snobatorium and ask us for help when he needs it as well as ask us questions.
