Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Trump needs to quit tweeting and lashing out at the ankle biters

If nothing else, it's entertaining as all hell. Tweet away. Too bad if you punch the bully in the eye while you're doing it. Fu ck 'em.

THAT!!

+1 and he's not affected by the bribes from special interest groups. Those folks don't know what to do if they can't buy votes - refreshing.

I love it. One of the reasons for Bush 43's downfall and Obama's subsequent ascent was the unrelenting, unresponded-to lies from the left. Bush refused to "sully" the office of President by responding but it made the lies look like truth. It hurt him and it cost lives in Iraq and Afghanistan. He never realized that the greatest enemy this country has is not Iraq, Afghanistan, Russia, China, ISIS, etc. It is liberalism and nowhere is liberalism more rampant than in the mainstream media. Trump's ability to combat that is why he won and how he will be successful as President.

How long after the inauguration do you think it will be before Twitter (under pressure from the left and the MSM) closes Trump's account?

As long as he can "tweet" he is in control. Take that account away and Trump will be severely crippled.

Betcha whitehouse.gov comes out with an alternative....

Ignore the mutherfuggersvand go on

Trump uses Tweets to bypass the hostile media. By doing so, he controls/sets the narrative/agenda and here we are, talking about it.

This is the appeal of Trump to Blue Collar white Union voter that the Dems never got. They (and many of the rest of us) grew sick and tired of the GOP leaders wilting and pussing out the first time CNN and Salon and HuffPO criticized them.

It ain't nearly so much fun to snipe from the weeds if you know you're gonna get a prompt machine gun blast. I love it.

DT is smarter than they are and a whole lot smarter than they think he is.

Between Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, Trump has almost 50 million followers for his direct message. Many more people than tune into CNN on any given day.


Also this, Twitter gets news out so fast that by the time Media builds in "spin", the real story has been told twice already.

Yep.

I doubt any news network has 50 mil viewers at any one time.

The Donald does...

Every time he tweets...

And don't ya know, that really pizzes'em off...

I think they are smart enough to keep the account that keeps them in the news. I'd wager his account is the single most important account they have and accounts for a significant percentage of new followers and company growth.

I guess he can keep it up, as it seems to be today's method for staying informed. Trump needs some sharp writers though capable of drafting comebacks with serious bite. Seems many of Great Britain's leaders have a real talent for putting people in place with just a one liner. Haven't heard any of Trump's responses that come even close to being classics.

Twitter gives Trump great power over the MSM, it's a beautiful thing to behold.

Many have underestimated Trump, All have lost.

This. I do think Trump looks like a Buffoon when he battles with people of no consequence on twitter. I hope he tempers that.

What's a tweet?

Twitter is DT's answer to the old sayin that a lie makes it halfway round the world before the truth's got its pants on.

With DT, the truth is round the world before the lie can be spun.

Nope no problem at all with you starting this thread hatari

Good discussion

''Tis evident the mileage varies and I'm good with that as posters make some valid,points about not just rolling over and taking the criticisms of his detractors

Will have to say I agree with the poster that opined, he needs some witty bastid to do the responding for him on twitter


I'm thinking steelhead and bristoe could do well with that job
