    He averaged a post every 7.5 minutes for 16 hours a couple of weeks back. One wonders whether future Presidents use Twitter as much. It is immediate - unrestricted access to the public. No President before him has used social media as much or as effectively at reaching the public.

      In one discussion, somebody said they assumed he didn't actually write the Tweets. Personally, I can't imagine anybody else doing them.

      I was only joking

        I watched a bit of today's press conference.
        Trump acted perfectly, as a politician.
        He listened to a question, and then veered off into what he wanted to talk about. Very engaging, and he didn't answer the question.
        It's not like this is some sort of high Art.
        If you like how a politician behaves, he nailed it just like an experienced politician.

        But then he went back to being Trump. He said in part, we'll pull our 8,000 troops out, we're just acting like police and our military should not be acting like police. And if we need to go back in, we will go back in with a "rage." That was the word he used.

                  So Biden's the same age that Trump will be when people say there's no real choice but to bring him in for a third term.

                        Great - maybe we'll have someone who understands concepts like probable cause and the rule of law. That way he won't start goading law enforcement to investigate a private citizen because he has a personal hunch.

                        EDIT: I like my Presidents as boring as possible. The fewer news cycles a President consumes, the more oxygen there is to talk about other things.

                          I'd be happy with a President who didn't act like a spoiled toddler, or, in the interests of not defending Joe Biden, could tell you his own name without having to first read his name badge.

                            That is just ridiculous if it is true (and I imagine it is correct).

                                        OK, so you equate Donald Trump with Daily Kos. Wouldn’t be bad for if you treat everything from Trump as if it came from Daily Kos. 🙂

                                          OK, so you equate Donald Trump with Daily Kos. Wouldn’t be bad for if you treat everything from Trump as if it came from Daily Kos. 🙂

                                          That’s one way to look at it for sure. Just pointing out the first theorists.

                                          You have to enjoy the irony and more importantly the nature of “news” as it relates to politics. You see now both sides changing their view strictly based on bias.

                                          I would spend more time looking the promulgation if I cared that much but suffice to say I do vaguely remember the rumor of Scarborough having an affair, I just don’t remember a death associated with it.
