It's like an SNL skit

ErectMedia

His people could have posted those. If not I talk in third person all the time, some of best humor.

The Donald, in my opinion, is the personification of weird and always has been. Also in my opinion he is an immature, egotist, con man, fraud, and is really ignorant about most subjects. Actually I don't really think that is just my opinion. I think it is pretty much borne out by the mans actions and words from his own mouth.

His rust belt voters will be pissed. "Drain the swamp" he said. "Get rid of the Washington elites" he said

Now eating frog leg dinner with his Washington elite crew.

He was simply quoting a press release on what he's doing.
That's not "tweeting in third person".

The guy is bypassing the news media and going straight to the people. The way it should have always been. And now the technology exists to make it so.

every single little detail gets him a thread of the bitter losers

where were your threads when Clinton said she 'hates everyday Americans' (meaning you)
or when she tried to destroy a Florida company because she was paid by its Moroccan competitor to do so
or when she started wars in the middle east
or when she sent Americans to their deaths in the middle east
or etc. etc. etc....

or just have a press conference like an adult?

You are not very smart.

How long does it take to have a press conference versus putting out a tweet?

He has a lot to do and not much time to do it.

mineistaken

I was going to post the exact same thing.
Those were just quotes/titles from the links he posted. They are even posted in quotes for God's sake...
Some people are that stupid...

2MuchMark

You're right. Usually, president-elects have had a few press conferences by now.



Not nearly enough information, especially info provided by a president elect, can be put out in 128 characters or less. I don't know about you, but I sure wouldn't want a leader who's "too busy" to communicate with his voters and to the country except by tweeting.

President (Elect) Obama held his first press conference on Nov 7th 2008, only 3 days after he won the election. He then held another one on Nov 24th.

President (Elect) George W Bush held his first conference 2 days after he won on Dec 15th (after Gore's concession speech).

President (Elect) Bill Clinton gave his 9 days later.

Each president-elect held press conferences days after winning, announced top cabinet picks, and answered questions from the press and say hello to the American people and to the world properly, formally. President Elect Donald Trump has not bothered to do so yet.

Robbie has a point: Trump is using Twitter to telegram his short message in digestible increments.

The Trump has spoken.

Step into the Trump Terminal and press the green button.

bronco67

Why would he do that? It might involve having to formulate coherent responses to valid questions...something he sucks royally at. The only thing he's good at is conning.

The reality is Trump has dumped the travelling press pool, you know why? So he can have shady meetings and setup money grabs to take place after he takes office.

Notice he cutoff the press pool after reports of him meeting with Indian business partners and Ivanka sitting in on the Japanese PM meeting.

Corruption is best done with as few witnesses as possible

PR_Glen

Yeah, you are the one defending the 'leader of the free' world has no time for press conferences but still has time to use a childs posting service to talk to the masses in 120 words or less and i'm the one that is not very smart?

Twitter never ever gets hacked though, so there could never be a problem with this right? Maybe you don't understand the definition of smart? I can understand if that is the case. Good luck with your continuation in the english language.

he did that interview with 60 minutes didn't he? I know its not the same thing but he still has addressed the public and has answered questions. My only issue is him using a completely insecure service to report shit. too many things can go wrong with this, including mis-interpretation by both the public and other nations.

Do you know how that first press conference will go? He'll walk away from the podium after a few minutes of the barrage he'll get from reporters.

He hasn't had press conferences because this whole thing.... from the candicacy/campaign to ACCIDENTALLY becoming president based on the ignorance and naivety of suckers is all one giant fucking sham. Have you seen some of the latest cabinet appointees? He's putting together his own Suicide Squad, full of losers, rogues and former Fox News personalities. Even Mike Pence was about to lose his governership, now he's the fucking vice president and will probably shape policy for years to come -- in the most backward moving way possible you can imagine. Like I said before, this is all a glitch in the matrix and feels like an alternate reality.

Then there's the idea that possibly we are in the most danger since the Cuban missile crisis of having a nuclear war with such unqualified people suiting up to handle our global affairs.

The main problem with Twitter -- other than the obvious -- as it pertains to the president is that there's no accountability for him. No one gets to ask him a damn thing nor does he have to explain the choices he's making to the American people. No one gets to ask him if he actually was walking around a restaurant for advice on who he should make secretary of state. He just farts out nuggets of information and that's where it ends.

Correct, Twitter is his dictatorship.

The king tweets, the media reports as "breaking news" and all day they ponder the ambiguities of the tweets because there's no back and forth, and Trump carries the need cycle all day long. Very troubling for democracy.

totally someone should really lock her up right? lol

he fooled you clowns for power, preying on the most vulnerable...the uneducated

nico-t

Your mind is still on MSM level shit that doesn't matter at all for the big picture. You guys who all believed the mainstream media are actually dumber than the uneducated who don't believe them anymore. They woke up, you are still asleep.

The big picture is the American people prevented an extremely corrupt war monger, already preparing for another war BEFORE the elections (the arrogance!), from becoming president. The world dodged a bullet with that, and the world is really fed up with the same establishment cartel ruling them, destroying their societies and not giving a fuck about people.

Bush, Clinton, Obama, Merkel, Cameron... They all play for the same interests.
And Brexit and Trump are two delicious huge "fuck you's" to them. It shows the people are really waking up and i love it.

Bladewire

Wrong

You are a Dutch citizen living in the Netherlands that does nothing here but berate Americans and post pro Trump political spew.

Trump lost the American vote by over 2,000,000 votes and counting. The "American people" overwhelmingly chose a competent Hillary Clinton for president.

Until December 19th Trumps presidency is in limbo.

Yeah Brexit is going great...lol, UK economy is a disaster and going to get much much worse

nico-t

Brexit hasn't even started yet, meaning they're not even out of the EU yet, genius

flashfire

And the British pound has already hit a 31 year low against the USD at the mere idea of it actually happening. Most if not all respectable economists think it will be a disaster.

And Trump...well lets see him do all these great things he has promised. Seems like he is just rounding up the usual suspects to run the country so he can tweet non-sense all day

CaptainHowdy

It's called "quoting" ...

Wouter, pointing out that you're a Dutch citizen living in the wettest muddiest part of the Netherlands (Kring Van Dorth) isn't discrimination, it's a fact. You post here every day hating on Americans and judging/inputting on our politics without ever comparing to your countries politics, fact.

I stayed up all night on election night watching the results on CNN.
Trump led the popular vote all the way UNTIL California votes were counted.

Hillary's popular vote "win" has a lot to do with New York and California. Two of the most populous places in the USA (California IS the most populous state)

But Trump won the popular vote in the rest of the United States.

That's why there is an electoral college. So that everyone's vote counts...and not just the ones in California and New York.

This is a Union of States. Not one big state. But 50 different ones.
It's kinda sloppy but it's a better system than simply counting all the votes in the country and handing it over to the "winner" (since nobody's vote would count unless you lived in California or New York)

The thing I think they should change is the "Winner Take All" that is in effect for most states. It should be proportional.

If Trump or Hillary won a state by 4%...they shouldn't get 100% of the electoral votes. They should get the percentage that they won.

Pretty sure that still wouldn't have helped Hillary. She lost badly. But it still would be more representative of the votes from each state in my opinion.

Just read that California had 14 million people vote in the election!

And Hillary won that by 2 to 1. And they are STILL counting.

So yeah, California is the sole reason she "won" the popular vote. Google that up if you think I'm mistaken.

It's late , just one thing. California is like Nevada, like minded people from all over the states and vast majority are not born local but born from other states.

So you think 1 Wisconsin vote should = 543 votes because the person stayed in Wisconsin instead of moving to California, New york, miami or Nevada for work? No! No to the electoral college.

People move out of the shitty parts of the country (not wisconsin, just in general) and 1 vote should equal 1 vote not more votes for the segregated people in shitty parts of the U.S., or less desireable, or less populated.

People's vote value being devalued because they leave where there's no work to a place where there is quite frankly is idiotic and fitting of the 1700's when the electoral college was created.


I.E. 10,000 people leave Michigan because USA is shifting from industrial manufacturing to online tech. They adapt/learn and get tech jobs. Unfortunately the electoral college gives 321 votes per person in Michigan for each vote in California. So the distressed non adapters in every state are given 200-541/1 votes for a Californian. It's literally retarded. Adapters are penalized.

Wrong, i am just trying to wake people up

And thanks for reminding me i need to update my whois, sherlock weird that i make you obsess so much over me just by posting my opinion, i'm not interested at all in spending my time that way just because someone is disagreeing with me on a message board... you're officially melting down, congrats!

BlackCrayon

a vote is a vote, a person is a person. does it really matter where they live?

electoral college gives more power to lesser educated states. is that a good thing? i don't know. while i don't like the idea of a couple of states dictating an election everyone's vote should be equal. some states shouldn't matter more than others.

Their vote isn't devalued. California has more electoral college votes than any state in the Union.
The amount of an electoral vote is decided by the population of the State.

Keep in mind that our country is a Union of States. The Federal Govt. wasn't really ever envisioned in the beginning to have the kind of power it does in modern times.

I don't see a problem with a tiny state like Rhode Island having a handful of Electoral Votes while California has 55.

You have to understand...you can't have one state deciding the entire election...which is what would happen if you went straight up popular vote.

In order to do that, you would have to change the entire form of our govt. and ELIMINATE statehood.
Then it would just be one giant country like you are saying.

Problem again would be...nobody's votes would count except California and New York. (Florida and Texas too, but the California vote would always determine the popular win by it's sheer population)

If the populations are greatest in those states, shouldn't they have the most say? like i said, it shouldn't matter where people live, a vote should be a vote. the minority shouldn't have priority over the majority, should it? this problem exists in canada too where people complain that ontario and quebec dictate the outcome of an election but this is where the most people are so what do you expect? basically a vote in NY or california is only worth half a vote. doesn't seem right. also doesn't seem right that smaller states have no voice since their populations are small but i don't believe giving their votes more weight is fair either.
