Trump Uses Twitter As a Platform For Distracting Critics

This article explores all Trump’s tweets and looks into the unfolding events after he tweets whereby most Republicans choose to look the other way and not be concerned with his habit of tweeting. “The president’s dearest supporters and bitterest opponents are united in their wish that less attention be paid to his social-media habit.” The Presidents critics are always looking at any scandals that come out of his administration’s policies and when this happens, Trump uses Twitter as a platform for distracting them by diverting their attention from substantive issues. Most of the President’s tweets come early in the morning, especially when or after watching Fox News, “The alarming North Korea tweet came 12 minutes after a report on the channel about Mr Kim’s “nuclear button”.” Despite trump having a press team and a chief of staff, no one can shield him from his favorite channel and on top of these, he sometimes takes things literally.
