The horrors of tweeting

From the very beginning of President Trump's campaign he was criticized for
tweeting. Not only by his opponents but even from supporters that often cringed
at some of the tweets he sent. 

Well, in the run-up to the election President Trump's Twitter ID, @realDonaldTrump , 
had over 30 million followers, or 3 million less followers than newspapers
sold! Add to this another 20 million following @potus and you can see the
impact his direct communication has, add the 'concern' of the media who prefers to 
single threat reports to the public.

Donald Trump will have none of this.

The primary criticism, "its not presidential"!  Well, I am sure any thought FDR's
'fireside chats' weren't presidential either as both means of communication went
directly and unfiltered to the American people!  Neither should be verboten.

If Twitter should not be used by the president, than should it be used by any
public official?  Or, even every form of journalism, print, network and cable?
Doubt we'd find any takers at any of sources quick to criticize President Trump!

Thankfully, there is no indication President Trump will stop tweeting, but there
is a variance within the media of what tweet to report on. It will seek out the ones
they believe will undermine the president, such as his criticism of London security
after latest terrorist attack.

But, don't expect the media to mention President Trump tweeted that today is the
73rd anniversary of D-Day which most in media failed to mention.

Guess, even in the world of Twitter, the media refused to be fair and honest!
