Master of the Twitter Universe

What do a retweet of a billion-dollar presidential golf swing hitting a hole-in-one into the back of a former presidential Democrat candidate, the new name poetically given to a crazed lunatic who has a fetish for shooting off misguided rockets, and a March 4th claim of “wiretapping” in Trump Tower that took seven months to be proven true, all have in common? President Donald J. Trump‘s magnificent way of communicating to the American people and the world instantaneously -- tweeting.

What Twitter is for President Trump in 2017, Facebook was for former President Obama in 2008.

There has been much said about President Trump's Twitter activity and the content thereof, and the discussions have centered on whether tweeting is fittingly "presidential". As to that, I ask "may I see the Presidential Behavior Manual?” Should he hire someone to tweet for him? Or do we suggest the extreme of taking away the President's First Amendment constitutional right to freedom of speech, i.e., banning him from Twitter altogether? Even as you read this, the media, particularly the Left, is having panel discussions and town hall meetings about the President telling the American people the truth about events in his own characteristic form of expression -- blunt, direct, and to the point -- yet all of his tweets will be revealed as truth when the smoke clears.

Folks, it's a brave new world and there are some who just don't want to embrace it.

I get 95% of my news from social media. The traditional "networks" like CNN, NBC, CBS, etc., are dead to me.

BTW, Free Republic is social media as well.

They are dead to me too, and have been for ages
