Why is tweeting so bad? (Obama, school, elect, salesman)

No, he is not a communication master. He merely a snake oil salesman that panders to an information deficient portion of the electorate and combined with his self-serving, self-indulgent sociopathic nature, personality and behavior, he has managed to fine a niche audience. What he communicates to me and to most other Americans, is the machinations of a bloviated swindler and fraud.

But in general, the tweets have gotten the results he has wanted - which is why he is still doing them.

I could see how during the campaign it got out his message without anyone contradicting him and helped to develop an us-against-them mentality.

The strategy behind actively working to alienate so many now remains a mystery.

I can't get over that Christmas tweet. What was that about?

Ever heard of Kim Kardashian? Twitter queen?

That right there should tell you all you need to know about this form of medium and why Trump needs to quit his habit.

I hate to tell you but all politicians are doing it now, including the very hypocritical, Democrat critics of Trump:

That's just your biased opinion. I think his tweeting is very effective.

I don't use Twitter myself, and I think he's chosen a masterful way to communicate, but I do wish he would learn to be a little more satirical when it comes to being critical of idiots like Meryl Streep. Let's just say he doesn't bash with class. She and others of her ilk deserve to get put down (literally) but he doesn't choose his words intelligently. He needs to learn how to be witty as he mocks people; instead, he sounds like a bratty 2-year old. He's embarrassing when he could be wildly entertaining.

Instead of resorting to name calling and labeling, why don't you show us how or what part of this thread makes it a "right wing hit job?"

Show examples. Thank you.
