The guy is prolific, and he does need to stop, but do you read them?

I follow him.  My favorite tweets of his are the ones that make no sense, like this.

Twitter is a great way to distract the country from the incoming incompetence and destruction Trump is about to unleash


This. Pay attention to what Trump does not what he says.

Of course, sometimes saying is doing. Like when he used his tweets to tank Lockheed's stock price. (And someone made a killing.)

Sometimes I see them when he tweets them and I happen to be on the site, otherwise no unless reported. A lot of his tweets are inane retweets/random ALL CAPS tweets of "Make America Great Again" at 3:30 AM.

I mostly spend my time on twitter professing my undying love for the Domestic Goddess (who is on the Trump train).

Those who voted for Trump wanted an entertainer-in-chief and not necessarily a president of the country, so sometimes you get what you wish for.

I still refuse to use twitter. I mean a guy somehow managed to win the presidency with it, but it's still a fad.

Donald Trump has singlehandedly lifted twitter from irrelevancy, for now.

In an office comparable in power to the Presidency of the United States -- Roman Emperor -- the three greatest entertainers as Emperors are three of the most reviled men in antiquity -- Nero, Caligula, and Commodus. This may be mere coincidence, but maybe it isn't.

I read it, but don't have a Twitter account.

Why do I read it?

Because it's just as, or even more, newsworthy as cnn.com or yahoo news or even cable news. It's where the news is made, unfortunately, so I'd rather see the direct source when half the news now is just people interpreting his tweets.

Sometimes yes. I'm not registered at Twitter, but from time to time I look at his page what nonsense he wrote again.

Interesting comment. Donald actually uses Twitter for the reasons you mentioned.

I feel the same. News now has just become someone's rose coloured viewpoint plastered 99% over each story.

So i know what you are saying.
