My guess is that there are certain accounts that have separate procedures. Twitter is in the black this quarter for one reason - and I'm pretty sure its the @realDonaldTrump....

If your company was being propped up by 1 individual - wouldn't you put special procedures in place to make sure nothing inadvertent happened? (EDIT - GUESS NOT!! https://twitter.com/TwitterGov/status/926267806261407744)

As a side note: I started using Twitter a lot more to follow @realDonaldTrump. It doesn't matter what I think about him. The reality is we live in a new news paradigm where every POTUS tweet is news before the actual news writes about it. Thats powerful... I'll go straight to the source then...

It’s not the source though. He basically posts his reactions to stuff he hears on Fox and Friends. It’s pretty well known that he can keep his attention on primary source briefings that every other president has relied upon before him.

Unless you count a thousand word CNN article about a short tweet as news. I don’t. I skip those articles because basically it’s just journalists being baited.
