He is communicating with His People.

Leaky Leahy, who actually caused the death of at least one CIA agent if not more(40 years ago), because of his big mouth, needs to sit down and shut up.

President Trump—Tweet away!

Leahy? Leaky Leahy?

Shouldn’t he be in prison for releasing classified (TS) to the media?

What was it, 10 years ago?

President Trump has Sean Hannity and Twitter. The Democrats have the entire MSM.

David = Trump. Goliath = MSM/Dems. We all know how that worked out. HA!

Ever notice how the Dems are just like the Muslims?

Get rid of your twitter equipment and I’ll be fine.
Get rid of your settlements and we’ll be fine.

once you cooperate they find another problem that we/Israel must do to appease them.

On and on and on and on. Don’t give an inch.

Does that include his Twitter underwear with the arrow pointing to where Leahy and his ilk can plant their lips and kiss his ass?

Leahy appears to be somewhat Twitterpated.

Trump doesn't need to stop posting on Twitter.

What he might want to do, however, is turn off the damn TV and stop reading any stupid newspapers. If he's getting information from media outlets that are clearly in the business of posting fake news stories, he's probably making PR-type decisions (like what to post on Twitter) based on information that isn't even true.

All your Twitter equipment...

Can someone tell me where Trump got his special Twitter machine? I want one just like it. Hey Andrea, is it gold plated? Does it fit in his pocket? Does it have wings? /s

Twitter equipment? And this from a lead Twit!

Trump is now expected to turn over any cell phone in his possession, any iPad or tablet device, and all his computers.

It’s official. This woman is brain dead.

The Deep Staters on both sides of the political spectrum hate Trump’s Tweeting.

His Tweets destroyed the has beens in the primaries and Clinton/Huma in the general election.

Anyone who is against Trump Tweeting is against Trump and wants to take away his biggest self defense weapon.

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.

That is one of the things the deep state wants...President Trump to stop tweeting. So now he has to, to protect himself from Mueller? The coup is active now.
