Donald Trump blames his presidency on Twitter. Good going Twitter!

Courtesy of Yahoo News:  

President Donald Trump is defending his frequent -- and often incendiary -- use of Twitter by saying that the social media platform lets him bypass the "dishonest" press. 

"Maybe I would not be here if it wasn't for Twitter," Trump said in an interview with Fox News late Wednesday. 

"I get such a fake and dishonest press," he said, singling out the CNN news channel and the three main US networks -- ABC, CBS and NBC. 

But Trump said he was "not including Fox because I think Fox has been fair to me." 

Much of the press "is not honest... I have close to 100 million people watching me on Twitter, including Facebook and Instagram," he said. 

"I have my own form of media." 

The @realDonaldTrump account on Twitter has just over 26 million followers. 

"When I say things, the press does not cover me accurately," Trump said, while emphasizing that "Twitter is a wonderful thing for me."

And here we thought that all of the ignorant, racist, and misogynistic things he tweeted would destroy his candidacy. Instead it just made his deplorables like him even more.

Our failure was not realizing how many truly stupid people there were in this country.

Not a mistake I plan to make again.

    "Up is down, left is right, Fox News is fair and balanced. To the new administration, reality is no longer a concrete, indisputable thing – it’s whatever Trump says it is. There’s nothing more dangerous than that.

    This is the President of the United States. He’s no longer some attention-craving, womanizing game show host. There are consequences to his pathological LYing. When he uncorks a flood of nonsense on Twitter, the world is watching – and, lately, shaking their heads in disbelief."

      We have an emperor with no clothes running the country. And the GOP are complicit because they will do nothing to stop him.

    "Trump has done more in office the way a toddler helps out in the kitchen. He may be trying, but by the time he leaves there’s snot on the fridge and a shoe in the dishwasher.”

    Painfully Stupid Trump Fan Thanks God And ‘Trumpcare’ For Her Lower Healthcare Costs Under Obamacare

    A Tennessee Trump supporter is ecstatic that Obamacare has dramatically lowered her family’s insurance costs, but she doesn’t credit the Affordable Care Act for her family’s good fortune — she says God and Trump are responsible.

  16. "unfair" = critical

    "fair" = falling all over themselves, asskissing complimentary

    Who can we blame for Trump?

    Where to begin?

    Certainly Twitter and Facebook have their fair share of responsibility. But if it wasn't for the low information voters, the haters, the downright gullibly stupid the greedy and self-centered would not have been able to sway so many.

    They're slowly waking up to the realization that they were snookered just like the Brexit crowd. But, nothing can be done now. They handed over the nation to those that have no interest in correcting the mistakes. Nope, not even if it's proven that Trump colluded with the Russians or is violating his oath of office and the Constitution on every front. He gives them power and serves their purpose. They are hardly going to slaughter their golden calf.
