That's true. Normally I have no issue with his tweets; even the more self-serving ones. I guess if he isn't going to get the credit he's due; he just has to do it himself.
Had it been the Kenyan; the media wouldn't shut up about it for days. And they wonder why we call them the enemedia.
I don't think the President (on ANY politician-for that matter) can ignore that tweeting is his/her only direct and incorruptible conduit for their message.
The MSM has no card left to play because it has made itself irrelevant. None but the least resourceful and the least intelligent would consider the MSM a trustworthy and useful source.
By now- EVERYONE (except absolute idiots) know the criminal advantage the MSM has taken in their role as America's journalists’, over decades of TV/newspaper/radio, etc. coverage.
It's taken a while, but with the internet and other news outlets, reasoning, sensible people have seen how irresponsible and biased the MSM has been, when THEY were the sole information source for American voters.
At this point-the MSM is only preaching to the converted... Without a full court press on viewers’ sensibilities, they can't generate any traction . So...there is MORE salacious content, irresponsible ‘reporting’, obvious and crude misrepresentations, emotional, inflammatory and sensational editorializing and language....it stinks!
