WhoWhatWhy once again opens the treasury to bring out the golden nuggets of presidential twittery.
To Covfefe or Not to Covfefe. That is the question.
Yes, it’s that time once again. The time when we reflect upon the past months’ tweets from the communicator-in-chief, and select our favorites. It is a difficult task, truly, for the harvest is plentiful.
It’s well established that President Donald Trump’s modus operandi for getting straight to the American people is via Twitter — often to the consternation of White House advisors and aides.
As the president himself said, “The Fake News Media hates when I use what has turned out to be my very powerful Social Media – over 100 million people! I can go around them.”
Of course that figure is exaggerated but there are still millions of people who follow Trump — supporters, detractors and Russian bots. If you aren’t one of them, here is a sampling of what you’ve been missing — or not missing.
Please see here for Part 1 and Part 2.
Fascinating to watch people writing books and major articles about me and yet they know nothing about me & have zero access. #FAKE NEWS!
