Every time he does this it shows the MSM and the rest of the world just HOW irrelevant they’re becoming:

WHO would pay for Journalism School today..?

ONLY A FOOL.

I’m following Trump. I’m in.

Question for any Twitter-Wiz: How many of those 100 million are likely to be actual PEOPLE?

I'm not sure if comedian Dave Chappelle has any fans here, but this clip contains a hilarious bit from him on Jimmy Fallon's show a couple of years ago that highlights the problem you just mentioned.

Dave Chappelle on Twitter and Other Social Media

The segment of the clip from 0:30 to 3:30 is what you really need to see. LMAO.

I love that he wields social media so powerfully. I want him strong and willing to bludgeon the left verbally. It beats the alternative that the left is forcing on us.

Maybe not. The replies to him are worse than reading DU.

So many attack him it’s rare to find a supporter. Yet the same Leftards are saying “Half of Trump’s followers on Twitter are Bots.”

Yet there we find all these Leftists replies! Are THEY bots?

Every time he does this it shows the MSM and the rest of the world just HOW irrelevant they’re becoming:

The role of press briefings is to create two complementary illusions. The first illusion is that the administration is providing new and useful information. That rarely happens. And when it does, it could have been done more easily in the form of a press release in response to a written inquiry. A written response can be faster than a press briefing because it doesn’t depend on a scheduled meeting time in the future.

The second illusion created by the press briefings is that “news” is being manufactured in that room. The reality is that artisanal “gotcha” moments are lovingly crafted by the press. That means the so-called news from press briefings is generally fake news, and that would be true no matter the administration in power.

The above reality is from Scott Brown!

The elite lying mediots, who control the NY Slimes, ABCNNBCBS, Faux,, WSJ, Compost, and LaRaza Slimes fail to realize: President Trump does not need them to speak to his 62+ million voters/us.

He Tweets us, sends his contributors emails and controls the White House digital system. He bypasses the left wing mediots, when he communicates directly with us.

Again, neither President Trump, nor his 62+ million voters need nor do we want the NY Slimes, BBC, ABCNNBCBS, Faux, the LaRaza/LA Slimes, WSJ, Compost, and LaRaza Times trying to tell us what our president is telling us. We know without their twisting and word games.

We don’t need the “old gotcha” press conferences. With the whining and lying liberal mediots attacking our president. We are tired of the mediots lying and telling us what to believe and how to vote! Ban them from the White House. Trump’s comments and statements are for his voters. We don’t need lying liberal mediots to tell us what he says to us. There is zero filtering, adjusting and lying to us when Trump talks to us directly!

Official Washington is being traumatized by the tweets of Donald Trump.

Trump speaking directly to the people via Twitter or the Whitehouse.com is causing a crisis among mediots, politicians, Never Trumpsters and lobbyists. They just don't know how to handle “Trump’s Twitter feed which traumatizes Washington and his enemies.

I agree that political journalism and newspaper journalism is suffering.

But there's a big opportunity for journalists and industry analysts serving medium sized businesses in the US that are B2B in nature.

Here's the angle. Big companies are served by national advertising and they can afford to pay to reach mass markets. Small mom and pop operations are served by local newspapers and magazines. But where a lot of the growth has to occur is at mid-range companies selling a Business To Business (B2B) product.

Now a lot of tech companies fall into that category. And those companies sell in a very narrow niche. TV, newspaper and yellow page advertising is no value to them because they are so specialized. The customers they are trying to reach are often not local or even regional. They are all over the country, or even international.

But an industry journalist who covers their niche can serve them well and spread the word about them to the tight-knit group of people they want to reach.

This is what I do for a living, and I'm exploring the idea of working with other journalists who want to own their own operation and I assist with systems and consulting.

If anyone is interested, check out the outline of a seminar I gave on this topic here in Georgia.

Please feel free to contact me if you'd like to get the PowerPoint for this seminar.

I did some thinking on this subject and feel there's an opportunity for more than 5,000 US jobs for industry journalists who address these niche markets. Here's my calculation based on US Census data.

Yeah, but it would be nice if he were Presidential on that connection. His tweets seem quite juvenile at times.

That’s his way of talking directly to the people, like President Reagan’s use of TV.

The media has tried its best to get the Donald to quit using twitter as the media can’t finagle Mr. Trumps message.
Trump knows if he simply lets the media get his message out they will skew said message.
Keep it up Donald.
Show how irrelevant the media is.

A President should be Presidential. Juvenile behavior from a head of state is inappropriate anywhere, anytime, for any reason.
