My only issue with Trump's tweets is when they take the attention away from his administration's accomplishments. When good things happen he should hold off a bit.

That's a lot of it in a nutshell. Trump has quite a few accomplishments, he has been good on Mideast policy, the economy, cutting regulations, ect... He does not have to leave it up to the lsm to get out the word. He has a staff who can do that, I know they have the time, they spend much of it defending his tweets instead. Two questions on the subject just to throw out there, 1. Do you like the Trump agenda, and 2, do you think his tweets help him or hurt him to achieve it.
Personally, I can not help but think if he would be more selective as to who he lets into the news room for the daily briefings he could get the word out as to what he is getting done. In other words, keep out the dumb assses.

Right, he should be more selective as who gets into the news room. That is why I don't think he dislikes the FAKE NEWS as much as he wants one to believe. He uses it as a tool to get a rise out of his base whom get all excited when he bashes the media. If he disliked the FAKE NEWS he would do something about it? ACOSTA ( CNN Stooge) still on TRUMP case but retains his front seat in the first row? Don'T take any questions from him? Call on only reporters that are friendly to his agenda like Barry did? Don't send your staff on all the hit piece TALK shows. WALLACE, TRAPPER, CUMMO "etc". Lot of things could very easily be done if he really disliked the FAKE NEWS. IMO do something about it or quit complaining about FAKE NEWS.

We do not want to fall into the same trap as the MSM. No need to shut down the MSM. I say keep calling on Acosta and let him continue to discredit himself.

Good Point BUT don't complain about it! It is not going to change until a LIB is in the WH again. TRUMP has totally discredited the MEDIA and it is as bad as it always has been. IMO either do something about it or don't complain because it will and is not changing. JMO

I don't think many people on this forum believe the MSM will change their ways. We just point out their hypocrisy when we see it.

Right. He needs to prioritize. Tweeting about the low unemployment rate is more important than tweeting about crooked Hillary.

Keep in mind, we don't have a clue as to what goes on behind the scenes, for all we know, Trump may be stealing their thunder before they get a chance to break a big story.

Yeah, I don't know the real method to the madness, but honestly, I really don't see an issue with him tweeting in the least, be it to slap a reporter, or throwing red meat to his base to fire them up, I just don't see it as a problem, but I can see how it completely discombobulates the left.
I guess because I never supported the guy, I have nothing to lose, so I take it for what it is, Trump's way of derailing the media.

Case in point. Did you hear this on the LSM? Of course not, that's why he tweeted it.


President Donald Trump on Saturday praised the country's economic gains and job growth seen since taking office. 

"Unemployment is down to 4.1%, lowest in 17 years. 1.5 million new jobs created since I took office. Highest stock Market ever, up $5.4 trill," the president tweeted.

The real sad thing is, there are actual idiots out there that are calling this, the result of the Obama economy.

b o had 8 yeas to work on the economy.   All he did was create hate and discontent.  The only job he made was in government.

Government job do not pay the bill, they only take money from the taxpayer.

What I find interesting, is Trump has more than 36.3 thousand Tweets, 42 million followers, and people get upset over a few tweets taken out of context by leftist media.
The guy has more than 36 thousand tweets, that's more than one every hour since he's been in office, and most people seem to think his tweets are full of animosity, and that my friends, is a narrative created by the LSM losers

I challenge anyone to post 36K posts and see if a few can't be spun to make you look foolish, I know some of my posts, when taken out of context, can take on an entirely different meaning.
Then again, much of what I have to say would be considered racist, sexist or any given name these leftists want to use against me, but then, like Trump, I don't give a damn what they think either, they aren't my targeted audience, that is, unless I target them, and those are the posts that drive them crazy.

I wish I could raise the ire of leftists as well as Trump does.

Note, you didn't hear it from leftist media, did you?
I think I'm going to start posting some of his better Tweets, since the LSM isn't going to be mentioning them.

...and he tweeted about the judge appointments.  Perhaps he is beginning to use his tweets in a manor that will further his agenda.

I hope so....I will be happy to be wrong that he doesn't have the discipline to focus the potential power he has wit his twitter account.

To be honest, I never followed his tweets in the past, and never had a problem with any of the ones that pissed of leftists, despite what leftist media wanted me to think.
But I must say, after reading through a shit load, I realized, if not for twitter, I'd never have heard a single quote anywhere in the news, so I get why he's doing it.
