According to The
Wall Street Journal, President Trump's political advisers wanted to keep
the him off Twitter during the Democratic debates next week, arguing that there
was an advantage in letting potential challengers attack one another without
distraction.”
“Now, there’s a new
strategy.”
The debates set for
June 26 and 27 will feature his favorite targets, Pocahontas on the first night
and Sleepy Joe Biden and Crazy Bernie the following evening.
President Trump can fit
two, three, or even four distinct statements into a single tweet.
Each little rhetorical zinger hits the feeds of his 61.1 million followers with
tremendous force.
I believe it will be Crazy Bernie Sanders vs. Sleepy Joe Biden as the two finalists to run against maybe the best Economy in the history of our Country (and MANY other great things)! I look forward to facing whoever it may be. May God Rest Their Soul!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 17, 2019
While
his challengers reserve space on their Twitter feeds to fit in links to policy
proposals or flattering coverage from the fake news, Donald Trump is
totally comfortable yielding every last character in his tweets to rhetorical
flourishes. They work so well; the actual content hardly matters.
The DNC's decision to
not let FOX News host any Democratic presidential primary debates means the
already slumping ratings for CNN and MSNBC will not improve as they host the
debates.
I have an idea: If they really, really, really wanted to
punch up the debates they would overlay Trump’s live tweets on the screen. It would be Zinger-geddon.
