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. you are right. I just signed onto my here to fore unused Twitter account, and clicked "follow" at @realDonaldTrump

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 I assumed by the content they ALREADY had that cabinet post.

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. Even to a screaming leftist organization like Twitter it's pretty risky screwing with the President of the United States. Right now he's just a private citizen, but in two days he'll be president. I think twitter would think twice about closing down the account of the president, that likely wouldn't be good for business.

His way of fighting back, good on him. The Dems don't know what to do.

Lot of raw news from all over the EU and US. A lot of junk too, but it has been very interesting. Hackers directly linking to SJW websites/contacts/plans for the inauguration, or reading the leaked emails from hrod17  clintonemail.com (Hillary's) are some things I was looking at last night.

Trump uses Tweets to bypass the hostile media. By doing so, he controls/sets the narrative/agenda and here we are, talking about it.
DF This^^^. Straight talk to 50 million people shorts out fake news.

DF This^^^. Straight talk to 50 million people shorts out fake news. Just checked out Fox News on line. Average viewership is about 1.3 Mil, more than MSNBC and CNN combined. I would think Trump controls the narrative with his 50 Mil Tweeter followers. Now, you know they don't like it, ad sales can't be that good. Like here on the Fire, hits = revenue... DF

Trump wins with the tweets! Best tweet he's had in two weeks was for all the communist, liberal congressman who are not going to the inaguaration to send him their tickets because he needs them for all the people who want to go!! Best response he could have made.

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. This needs to be told over and over by the right until its embedded in the brains of our youth. No one seems to have the guts to inform them the policies of the left are designed to destroy us, not to make us politically correct. Watch a liberal when you tell him that if open borders and filling a nation with muzzies was a good thing China and Japan would be doing it.

It's just too bad that Trump has really, really, really bad delivery. You know, words and such? Words. I love words. Words are great, so great.
It's like a phuqqin billionaire valley girl.
