If you were on the Twitter Response Team, how would you respond to this tweet?

"The media was able to get my work schedule, something very easy to do, but it should have been reported as a positive, not negative. When the term Executive Time is used, I am generally working, not relaxing. In fact, I probably work more hours than almost any past President....."

===============

I have thought for a long time that the Democrats should have a response team to respond to his bullshit over Twitter. He gets his free propaganda without a challenge.

If you’ve never done it, go to Trump’s Twitter and read the comments.
I know Trump can’t resist reading them, but he probably thinks the 5:1 negative comments keep his base fired up.
Comments like, “Fuck you, you sadistic moron. You’re going to prison.”

constitutes ‘work’ for Trump, exactly – he knows nothing about the law, responsible governance, or sound public policy.

Working on more lies, clearly; working on how to be more dishonest and corrupt.

when I don't hear the words trump or twitter, I am so sick of both of them that I find it difficult to watch the news anymore. I can't believe the country has devolved to the point that everything centers on the idiot in the white house, his incessant lying, and his constant whining and nonsense on Twitter.

The country has become too obsessed with soundbytes and twitter. It's no wonder so many people were completely clueless about the real meat of the issues in 2016.
"We don't need no stinkin' policy proposals!"

And lends itself to dangerous "they're both equally bad" arguments. If they get pissed and hateful enough, they fall for someone like trump.

Almost seems like this shit is planned.

Makes me wonder why it drags on.

If Obama had done 1/10 of what trump has done, he would have been impeached IMMEDIATELY.

there were no media coverage of his stup ass. Indifference would make him a king without a country. Congress should just go about it Constitutional duties as it was intended...and begin impeachment process out of view of the public.

or his mutant family ever again. I agree with you though, I would give anything just for a single day of peace right now. Every fucking day it is something with him. He is traumatizing the entire nation with his drama and chaos.

better get the hook and get this POS off the stage. Everyday each day they talk about this POS, see his POS orange face every where, see his tweets which he can shove up and hear his obnoxious voice.

The people's work is not being done because of this POS. Hear that hissing it's the lid on the pot that is going to blow.

You lie as easily as you breathe.

There are over 8,000 recorded instances of lies just since you took office. Why should anyone ever believe anything you say?
