Donald Trump has his rather unique viewpoints when it comes to politics, and whether right or wrong, they are the ones that got him into office.
What’s the difference if it’s said on Twitter or on TV? Tweets stick around, and you can retweet, share and screenshot. However, with debates between the candidates having the most viewers in history, around 80-85 million viewers according to CNN, it does not matter where he says what, plenty of people will hear.
It is nice to hear from the soon-to-be president directly on Twitter. As a member of the generation that will be allowed to vote in the next election and an active member on social media, I am glad that the two are becoming more connected.
Trump should use Twitter, but the childish attacks against the media and people who are “mean to him,” are very unprofessional and not something I want the leader of our country taking part in.
Donald Trump sent out a tweet on his account on Nov. 29, “I thought that @CNN would get better after they failed so badly in their support of Hillary Clinton however, since election, they are worse!”
Issues have occurred between CNN and Trump in the past, and you would think as president he would move beyond these issues. If he cannot deal with criticism from a news organization, how can he handle the much worse criticism he will receive from other people in and out of our country?
