What Do You Think of President Trump’s Use of Twitter?

I think president Trump’s use of twitter is reckless and ignorant. He tweets like a republican man sitting in house with very little responsibility but he is our president. Because our country elected him he has the responsibility to keep us safe but if he keeps tweeting whatever is on his mind it will show our nation as weak. Also his tweeting and presidency has divided the UNited States more than it has been since the Civil War.

I think Donald Trump's use of the Twitter platform is justified, no matter how controversial or questionable it is. The President is still an American citizen, even though people have higher expectations of him in such a pristine position, and he should still have the Free Speech Rights as everyone else, even if you don't agree with him. Now I do think that some things he posts publicly on his Twitter could be used against him and he should maybe think about potential consequences, but it is his Twitter and he should choose what he posts. His Twitter can also be his greatest ally too, since he consistently uses it to call out people he doesn't like and sway the opinions of others. President Trump's difference in politics and the way he engages political fronts like the way he does on Twitter and other social platforms just makes me like him more. It seems that compared with other "professional" politicians who are too caught up in staying relevant and popular in a mad rush for re-election, Trump using Twitter in such a different way than everybody else in his field makes him a more relatable man in office to the average American.

I believe its highly inappropriate how our now president constantly tweets about what is happening and about his decisions in office. It is very childish thing to do when you work in such an important and high position, and then to tweet about it. The things he tweets about are very controversial, mean, and sometimes fairly racist, when he should just be keeping his texting off and do his job RESPONSIBLY. I personally think he is already very childish, but with this whole 'tweeting as president' thing is going way too fair. It is just wrong!

I think that Donald J. Trump's use of twitter can be slightly inappropriate at times, considering he is the president. While free speech is one of our country’s 10 amendments, there are some issues that should be addressed in a more professional manner. It's especially out of line when it begins to make people such as Muslims feel uncomfortable in our great nation. Approaching problems with citizens of America by humiliating them online, stereotypical comments, or mocking them in a childish manner during a speech is not the way that someone as high as the president should be handling personal or public issues. I believe the things Trump posts should be a little more constructive and professional and less childish and amateur. Trump posted a video of a terrorist islam group committing negative acts on people, which drags the Muslim ethnicity through the dirt especially with the way Trump portrays it. He also has numerous posts on twitter of him insulting his political rivals publicly, which to me is how a teenager would be expected to handle an issue with a peer, not the president of the United States of America. I believe that Trump is entitled to his opinion and can say what he wants in person, but a small group of trusted officials should start proofreading the things that he posts online for the whole world to see because what it does is injure viewpoints as well as emotions and give the citizens and himself a bad image for the rest of the world to see that sticks.

I believe that the president should have a twitter but he should have a team that triple checks it. He cant just be posting thing in the heat of the moment. An example that supports my reasoning is when shared that video of Muslims committing bad acts. He is slandering all Muslims by doing this and that's just horrible. A good thing that has come out of this is that he can read the citizens responses and understand what we want and don't want. It is also very childish of him to insult political rivals, i think he should be able to block people if he has nothing good to say about them.

I think that president Trump should be able to have a twitter account, but he should be using it in an adult like manner. He needs to realize that people can take offense to just about anything. He should't be posting anything about peoples religion, I think he should just tweet about things that we the people need to know as american citizens.

I feel that Donald trump's tweets are out of line at times. He tweets things that a president shouldn't tweet. I agree with some comments on here that president Trump if just trying to get a reaction out of people, and this shows the maturity level of the president of the United States. I do feel that his twitter account should be suspended for the inappropriate tweets, but I do not feel that he should be able to block people. It is our right to see what the president is saying publicly for the world to see.

I think it funny. He should be able to keep using twitter but he should use it respectively. Also he should be able to block people.

Yes trump should be able to block people. That would be an honor to not have to see a Donald Trump tweet. Who knew we would have to say that? He should be free to communicate via social media how he wants but what I don't understand is how has his account has not been suspended yet. I thought that no cyber bullying and/or harassment was against the terms of service on any social media platform. Plenty of people have been suspended for more petty reasons.

I think that there is no harm when a President has a Twitter account. For example, Barack Obama successfully maintained a Twitter account that helped made internet-connected Americans in touch with the President of the United States. However, it's 2017 and Barack Obama is no longer the President of the US. In my opinion, I believe that Donald Trump is a special case for this new tradition for Presidents in the information age. Donald Trump is picking fights with world leaders (or dictators) like Rocket Man and has retweeted or tweeted unpresidential material. Putting the Presidential Twitter account into the hands of a reliably unpredictable president must come to an end. Instead of giving Trump direct control of the Twitter account, I think a staffer should maintain the account at ALL times and tweet out professionally written texts for the American people to dissect. If the President wants to send a message through Twitter, President Trump can just tell the staffer whatever he wants and a modified version of the requested text can be published. The Presidential Twitter account has become a laughing stock for the world in a time when America should be a leader that tackles international issues. As for media outlets, analyzing and debating a poorly written 240 character piece of text for 20 minutes during a news report isn't what the United States needs right now when people are suffering as a result of Trump or for other reasons. Trump's use of Twitter is simply a nuisance.

Personally I think that the President of the United States of America should not be using Twitter in the way he is currently. Obviously, social media must be used since it is most of the time the main source of communication in today’s society. But that does not mean that the President should use it like a teenage girl tweeting in a fight. The President is suppose to be held to a higher standard than the average citizen. Therefore, he should only be using his Twitter to inform people politely rather than bashing other people or parties. Since his tweets have been so controversial the people in the head of his administration should have taken his twitter away from him during the election. Also, the President is someone who is a role model for so many people. Imagine all of the middle and high schoolers who are observing his tweets and think it is okay to subtweet mean things about other people. Not to mention that the First Lady’s community service foundation for Melania Trump is cyberbullying, which is extremely ironic. How is she suppose to teach children that being mean through social media is not okay when the leader of our country does it constantly? Another issue with it is the fact that it is incrediably unprofessional when relating to foreign countries and deals. It simply makes America look worse than it already must look to other countries.

I don't like that the leader of a global superpower uses Twitter to attack other leaders, dissenters, and make announcements of major policies. It's ridiculous that our leader, at 3 AM, tweets about alleged "fake news". It sure is entertaining, because what else is more entertaining that watching a not-so-smart man try to insult major world leaders and participate us in brinkmanship, but it is also very terrifying because he does not seem to realize that his words have consequences, and that most of the time his ridiculous tweets only degrades America's status as a superpower. It is quite inflammatory and reckless, and it does allow transparency, but the effects it has are much more negative. For example, Libya is now using Trump's claims about "fake news" from CNN to dodge confrontation about a literal slavery crisis in Libya. The fact that his tweets are being cited as "facts" from other nations and used to demote us creates a real negative impact on America's reputation.

It is my firm belief that a president should not be allowed to use social media - not in the way President Trump is utilising the platform, at least. For centuries past it has been, and will continue to be, the duty and responsibility of the President to keep the states in the Union aligned with one another, and respected on an international level. Thus far in his term, Trump has fulfilled neither of his principle duties. By having the ability to post whatever he wants Mr. Trump is in fact "circumventing the press", but when this ability is used to slander a religion that accounts for approximately one fifth of the entire globe, he begins to cross a line. This line is the line commonly referred to as "political correctness", and while many of his supporters applaud his use of social media to "speak his mind", I maintain that the English language aligned itself accordingly when it labelled the way a politician should act as "politically correct". There is a reason that the word "correct" is included in this clever titling (thanks, English). A politician cannot simply disregard this principle, as it encompasses all that constitutes diplomacy, leadership, even basic credibility, and respect. Through his use of Twitter specifically, Trump is abolishing - or at least decomposing - many diplomatic ties, pitting the union against itself in a love-hate relationship, and is slandering his own credibility by making unsupported or unjust accusations against people and societies alike.

I think Donald Trump has strong opinions and believes it is very important for him to share it. Some things he posts are not very appropriate for the leader of our country to post. I think he should be able to tweet what he wants but he should be a lot more aware of how it makes him look. He should have someone else with a big following posting the things he does instead of him.

I think that Trumps tweets are meant to drag attention to him. after all, these are only some Muslims, not all of them. Mr. Trump is overdoing the fact that Muslims have lashed out, and there could be a meaning behind the violence. America is the land of the free, but with trump in office, that fraze is questionable if not false. not everyone can get into the country.

I think that Trump's tweets are a good thing, it is the only way that Trump can give his own public opinion to America that is uncontrollable by the media. If the news knew what Trump would say they would not let him on the air. This way he can express the concerns that he has and tell us what he thinks. This is my own personal opinion.

Trump tweets distractions. It's almost the work of an evil genius. If we payed attention to his patterns rather than the content of the tweets, we would see that almost everything is to distract from the fact that he doesn't know what he's doing. The formula is this: tweet something inflammatory, something that will fly to the press, annoy the people who already don't support him, and not bother the hard-core right who love him. Those who care about what's happening in government will be distracted by the offensive material. I don't think Trump is fit at all to be president, but he isn't an idiot. The government can't agree on a healthcare plan? Tweet something horrible an offensive. North Korea might nuke us? Proclaim support for a pedophile in Alabama. The government might can't agree on a financial plan before December 8? Call out Pelosi and Schumer and then retweet offensive videos from an actual terror group. The embarrassment of our nation should not only be the fact that we've allowed someone like Trump to represent us, but that we allow ourselves to fall victim to his distractions. He's been president for a year and done literally next to nothing - we have no new healthcare plan, nor have we built a wall, and we've further agitated North Korea, which is wonderful. We become so enveloped in being offended by his tweets that we forget to call him out on what's really happening in government-nothing.

I personally think the idea of a president using social media, such as Twitter, to discuss topics surrounding the internet at that time is a cool and clever idea. It allows the people following an insight into what is going on in the world, and who the president really is or what they think about these topics. I do not like how President Trump using Twitter however. Everything he says on there relates to some controversy and tends to just make the problem worse than it was before. He attacks people and raises drama creating problems and my opinion being irresponsible. The president is the face of our country, someone everyone can respect, but it's hard to respect someone who uses their platform so recklessly creating drama and problems all over our country. The president shouldn't be encouraging this kind of behavior and definitely shouldn't be exemplifying it. I think if the president were to change his tweets from negative to positive this could be a good thing, but right now it is the complete opposite.

I am absolutely horrified at the fact that President Trump is using social media as his way of attacking things and people he doesn't like. The amount of racism is repulsive, everyday people who are Mexican, African American and Muslim are forced to battle stereotypes that are laid on them due to the fact that they aren't white. Why can't people accept that fact that not all Muslims are terrorists, that not all African American's are evil and carry guns, not every Mexican is a rapist. Our country has fallen back into our history, our history of racism and hate for people who aren't white skinned. If we don't change soon...what will it be like for our children? And their children. Trump needs to stop, yes he is the president. But is he really making our country great again? Or is he breaking us farther and farther apart until we can't be pulled back again.

Hate One word so powerful that it has divided not only our entire country, but whole world for Hundreds of years. There are whole group devoted to nothing but hate, the KKK for example. Who appear to be Trump's target audience. President trump seems to get confused on the difference between straight Racism and "political correctness" in his little twitter rants. After a poor choice of words at a medal ceremony with Native Americans he re tweets racist FAKE videos that show a "radical Muslim" attacking a poor Dutch boy with crutches. That is called by the Trump White House, just trying to start a conversation and bring up an important issue. Last time I checked being racist was not on the current national agenda, things seemed to have changed though since Trump has taken over. These retweets not only were racist and hate filled, but also made a mockery of the U.S. to our allies. When your strongest Allie's head of state has to come out publicly saying your countries leader acted "immaturely" there is a big big problem. A problem that can only be addressed by the citizens of this country and our elected officials. I hope more politicians stand up for what is right and not just what is easy. If they don't our whole country will eventually have to pay. Trumps tweets are bad news for our entire country they don nothing, but appease his little mind and spew racism. They must be stopped before he does more damage than he already has to our great nation!

Social media platforms are used by everyone in this new era of technology, which, evidently, even includes the President himself. I would have applauded the President taking advantage over this huge influence on the People, if it wasn't for his racist and rude remarks that course through many of the arteries of his tweets. His deliberate and often anger-inducing tweets tend to make the People retaliate in a rough and rude manner back to the President, which, just a few years prior, I would've thought that no one would dare be so rude and haughty to the President. Times have changed, though, and the People will continue to retaliate against his tweets so long as he continues his streak of calling out specific races, genders, and other sore subjects of today’s politically correct society. My advice to him would be to drop the Social Media for your Presidency, as you are not Donald Trump right now, you are POTUS.

Social media is a platform that can be used to spread awareness to, inform, or connect people around the world. It is often used for good, but I know the world is all too familiar with how it can abused. An example of this could be ISIS propaganda, misleading articles, or racially charged videos released to a huge base of people. President Trump has released many videos like this, such as, “Muslim migrant beats up Dutch boy on crutches!” and “Muslim Destroys a Statue of Virgin Mary!” The former video was then proven to be another dutch boy hitting a boy with a crutch. His misuse of social media and disregard for fact checking is damaging, not only to himself, but to the reputation of the United States and our relations with our allies.

Our president's job is to be diplomatic, to represent our country with grace, and to approach and solve issues while upholding these expectations. The problem with social media is, it is (in the grand scheme) a relatively new way to communicate with anyone, anywhere. Trump has taken this tool and used it as many others have, but he is not any other, he is the president and right now the face of our country. So when approaching any social media platform he should approach it with the standards expected of a president, not the standards of a teenager bitterly facing a world against him.

President Trump use of Twitter results in the spreading of hate and ignorance. Many people, especially teenagers, do not keep up with reliable sources of news daily and could be easily persuaded by these reactionary and opinionated tweets. Instead of complaining, jumping to conclusions and being biased, President Trump needs to act like a leader by doing real research, and putting the information he finds from that somewhere other than social media, in a way that is informative rather than inflammatory. It's unfortunate that he's doing this as it leads to lost respect everyday from people all over the world, not just for the office of the President, but for us as a country.

Social media is a dwelling place for teenagers who are most likely looking to get at each other or get a laugh. The truth is that social media is honestly a distraction from the real world and does not oftenly product very good things. I am not on twitter but many of my friends are and most of the time their tweets amount to nothing. So tell my why our president is actively on twitter posting like someone in my fourth block history class would? Come on Mr. President, everyone already knows who you are. I could careless who Trump block or friends on twitter because I personally feel like that he is not doing his job right if he has enough time to twitch his thumbs like a fifteen year old. Trump is a loudmouth who is not using Twitter to his advantage, he thinks it helps him. Every time trump hits the share or post button, he fires another round at his foot. I am ok with trump being on twitter but he really needs to tone it down as to what he is posting because quite frankly it is getting out of hand. This tweet reminds me of something a teenager would post: “How low has President Obama gone to tap my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!” this tweet surely does not make the U.S. look good. For the society, Trump needs to post motivational tweets that encourage racial equality or a better education but as of now I do not really see him “Making America Great Again.”

Imagine a world where your elected leader uses social media as a hideout, due to withholding large amounts of sheer cowardice - making careless and dangerous remarks and comments. Oh - wait. That's reality, for citizens of America. Using Twitter as a sword of public slander, hatred, and discrimination, President Trump has no bounds, or remorse, for what he writes, and then publishes for the world to view at their discretion. Just this week, the president shared videos of anti-muslim nature, according to the article (and Twitter!). For a president who claimed to be for equality at one point, he's doing a horrid job at showing it. Not only were these videos inaccurate, but they were harmful to the entire Islamic/Muslim community; they already get enough hate and harassment just for their culture and religion, and now that the president of America is normalizing their harassment, is going to make it much worse, over time. I won't be surprised if other minority groups are at a risk of being called out and hated upon by Trump on Twitter, resulting in hate towards them as well. Our country is doing one thing - and that's resorting to hatred.

Trump tweeted out a video of a Muslims in Britain committing acts of violence. He did this to show that Muslims are violent and ultimately that he doesn’t approve of their views. Peter Baker wrote “...Trump shows little restraint, in targeting Muslims.”, which shows he has done this in the past and doesn’t seem like is going to stop. I feel when Trump is directly going after one faith he is oppressing our first amendment right to religious freedom. I think that next time our President feels like blasting off another tweet targeting this group, who is majority peaceful, should think twice about the lives he could affect.

This is Trump's twitter account, and he has the right to post what he wants to post on his account. I think that right now Trump is reporting the problems that the United States is facing and he is not going to sugar coat these major issues that our country is facing, and he shouldn't! Trump is communicating with Americans honestly through social media. Most politicians would try to just show what the people like, just to stay on the safe side, but Trump is being realistic with Americans. These videos that he is showing are NOT FAKE! He is showing the truth, but people for some reason think that telling the truth is wrong. He has the right to use social media just like everybody else. The media does not like his twitter because he is not dependent on them to carry his message. Donald Trump is the President of the United States and I respect his right to use social media.

As far as Donald Trump tweeting potentially offensive things on twitter, I believe he has a right to that in the First Amendment. However, social media is not the platform to incite anger and maybe even violence. There is clearly a racial component to his tweets, but he also takes pride in protecting his America people. So, I believe it is a little bit of both drawing attention to the need for national security and inciting fear/normalizing hatred. Trump's tweets seem a little childish, as he tries to call people out behind a screen, but I would not discount him because he is one of very few pointing out political injustice and problems with the world. It is evident why people think he is a racist bigot however it is important to take both sides into account because everything he does is not always bad. For example, the stock markets are up and unemployment rates are down. Back to the issue at hand, Trump's use of Twitter does seem slightly childish , nonetheless it is quite hilarious and entertaining watching a seventy year old man call people "Rocket Man" and "crooked" and respond to disagreement in foreign countries with a bold remark on his Twitter. As long as Mr. Trump continues to tweet, people will always be angry. People are always angry about something and its clear that he, nor his opposers are willing to stop.

While Twitter is a wonderful way to spread information, catch up with friends, and post your opinion, it has the potential to create controversy. This applies to everyone, from the average person to the President of the United States. Twitter is a platform used by many public figures, but most, including former President Obama and Pope Francis use it in ways that are informative and respectful, not offensive. Trump is in a position where he represents our country to the world, and many people would rather not be associated with the anti-Muslim posts and the other discriminatory media he posts on Twitter. His Twitter use has certainly garnered attention with times such as the “Covfefe” incident, but there are far more appalling instances when he discriminates against groups of people such as Muslims, Hispanic immigrants, transgender individuals, and the NFL football players, to name a few. He also uses it as a place to insult leaders of other nations, most recently being Great Britain’s Prime Minister, Theresa May. Twitter is certainly not an appropriate place to talk with or about world leaders, which can have global affects. By using Twitter, Trump has made himself a space to publicly broadcast his every thought for everyone to see, whether it be polite or offensive, which isn't a great way to represent the US. It’s a terrible example to set for children and young people who look up to him, especially in a world where bullying, especially cyberbullying, is a huge issue.

Trump posting these videos is completely inappropriate, but sadly, not uncalled for. Since Trump was elected he has posted things that are, to put it simply, not what a president should post. In the article it states that some of his supporters approve of his lack of political correctness. This is understood, and everyone has their own views, but with these videos he is offending many people, and is falsely accusing Muslims. I do think that his tweets are counterproductive because, as said in the article, this is a time in the world when America needs allies such as Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries. Trump has no filter and could be costing the United States helpful allies because of it. Yes, he has his supporters, but they need to look past their approval for their racist and sexist president, and take a look at the bigger picture. Trump could be helping the United States gain allies in the fight against terror, but instead he is hung up on personal beliefs, and angering the people the US needs help from.

Why is the president being a bully through social media? It just doesn’t make sense to me. He should be using social media to promote the things he’s working on and how he is making our country better. Instead President Trump decides to tweet about how Obama had problems during his presidency and call out leaders of foreign countries about their problems. Also insulting many news groups including the New York Times and promoting other news groups like Fox News. Doesn’t he have something better to do? Or even something better to tweet about? 9 of the 10 topics of his tweets are either insulting people or calling out companies. He should be using his popularity to talk about something more important and something that matters to the people of the country. Recently he has also published some racist tweets against Muslims. This will not help our relationship with any countries at all nor do anything to helps anyone. It’s better to make friends than to make enemies.

I believe that President Trump should continue to use the Twitter platform, but in a different manner. I think Mr.Trump’s tweets are exaggerated for a reason, he wants to make himself stronger and more intense for the public and other countries. Some of his best moments are when he is fired up and makes a bold decision (when it is not racist or offensive). So doing this on a social media networks ok, but not to the point where it is so reckless and extreme that people are getting offended. An example of this could be his tweet from Wednesday that was anti-Muslim. The tweet portrayed Muslims as violent murderers and angered the Muslim population. This will just drive our nation apart and create worse relations than we already have with other countries. This is when his use of twitter is bad. When he uses it for good he can be very informative to the public and create a productive public interest. This could be explaining what is going on in the capitol today, meetings, relations with countries, positive feedback. This is why I think President Trump should continue using twitter, just not negatively as he has used it in the past.

President Trump touched off another racially charged furor on Wednesday by sharing videos from a fringe British ultranationalist party purportedly showing Muslims committing acts of violence, a move that was swiftly condemned by Britain’s prime minister as well as politicians across the spectrum.” President Trump should know better than to just say whatever he feels like while on Twitter. Many media organizations are liable to take what’s he says and twist its meaning. Now in this case however President Trump should’ve controlled himself and perhaps watch more carefully who he is replying to on Twitter. By deciding to reply back to an ultranationalist group he sends a bad message to other countries leaders. Britain for example was unpleased by president Trump’s actions. In my opinion while Trump does sometimes say important things on Twitter he more often than not says things without thinking of the consequences. Ultranationalist groups only exist in order to spread hate of races ideologies that they disagree with. By deciding to reply to this kind of hate group president Trump surely looks to be hastily typing on his phone rather than running his country.

Most of the teenagers these days daily use social media platforms like twitter, and if you have ever been on twitter than you have definitely seen one of his tweets. First off I think Trump uses twitter way too much and unfortunately most of the time they aren’t appropriate. However I do feel like President Trump can use the Twitter to say good things and help influence our country's youth, but when he psts racially discriminating tweets is when things go wrong. In the past few weeks president, Trump has posted some very disturbing videos on Twitter displaying Muslims as violent murderers. All these posts is do is put fear into the hearts of the muslim community, who are people just like us. As a country we should encourage Trump to use the Twitter platform to his advantage instead of using it to bring people down.

I do feel like President Trump can use the Twitter platform for good, but when he uses it to post racially charged videos like the one on Wednesday that was anti-muslim, it becomes a problem. All this post is doing is putting fear and hatred into the hearts of muslim citizens. Instead of being a truth teller like some believe, he is being counterproductive and dividing our nation even further. I do feel like President Trump is too reckless with his tweets, but he also tweets things that keep the US informed on certain things like some of his plans and ideas. An example of this is a tweet from him in Janurary, “Busy week planned with a heavy focus on jobs and national security. Top executives coming in at 9:00 A.M. to talk manufacturing in America,” Tweets like this can keep American citizens in the light about what trump has been doing through his presidency. Twitter can also be a great platform for Trump to interact with the press. According to Sean Spicer, Trumps press secretary, Twitter town halls and Reddit forums may replace some typical presidential press interactions. In my opinion, Trump should be able to use Twitter to his advantage, but he should have someone moderating his tweets so any anti-muslim or inflammatory tweets won’t be posted.

The Tweets are the only place Trump does not lie and show how much we need to see what he really thinks. What he thinks is what he he believes is absolute fact.

I have reported his Tweets numerous times. Including a phone call to the Washington DC FBI to report his retweet of a video of a fake physical attack of Hillary Clinton where I gave my name. I am surprised Twitter has not banned him due to the immense and immeasurable liability associated with the consequences of his words, from personal attacks, to slander, to world stability. His tweets cause blinding rage when I read them, and they divide this country. He has permanently harmed this country and Twitter is an integral part of the hatred in this country. Personally, I feel Twitter should be shut down completely. It serves NO PURPOSE now that Justin Bieber is an adult.

I really think that Donald Trump is a cyberbully in charge. Since when do Presidents tweet about everything and everything regarding PEOPLE nonetheless. It would be understandable if the President would post things about participating in Community Service, or visiting third world countries or even thanking people for their contributions to society. But there is an outlier for everything, and Donald Trump is that outlier. According to the article, there were directed racially targeted tweets. When in America has it become okay for the President of the United States to openly insult another race? When in America has it become okay for the President to insult women, minorities, and people in general over social media? Or even display acts of domestic violence over social media? The current President of the United States is a child with a tablet. Unaware of the social cues and correctness and even common sense shared by society. But to make matters worse, he’s a grown man and the leader of a once great nation. “Make America Great Again” but how are your actions contributing to your statement? Your base of your campaign? Why share these videos of people committing crimes and place a label on them? For a president to make those types of statements about a group of people and claim to be “ more presidential than any president that's ever held this office” is absurd.

Trump's use of social media is worse than that of a 12 year old girl. He is constantly on it, has to be told reprimanded when using his phone during important meetings, and retweets troublesome accounts. This is a worse problem than his habitual golf trips. It shows that he can not control himself and refuses to think before he says anything, which is a horrible quality in a world leader. I think blocking accounts is a form of censorship because it limits the people's ability to connect to the government, however small it seems. He is free to choose with whom he communicates but chooses to use that freedom to respond and affirm beliefs of alt-right people and twitter accounts repeatedly. He cannot handle gentle criticism of any kind, and is insanely stubborn, which shows he has the maturity of a 10 year old. This should be unacceptable for a person of his responsibility, but despite being in the wrong, his followers feel the need to defend his every move.

I think our president is immature and disrespectful. His tweets are rude and calling direct people out. Not only that but he is racist, sexist and trying to deprive people of things like abortion. It is not murder, its similar to the killing of cancer cells. Never once in my life have I met anyone as rude as him. And somehow Muslims are his blame for anything when the most shootings have been made by white Americans. His tweets are irrelevant, he tweets so much but shouldn't he be running our country instead.

As President of the United States of America, Trump’s use of the internet specifically Twitter is unjustified and completely inappropriate for someone in his level of power. Over the past few days, Trump has made many posts on Twitter degrading Muslims and videos of them doing bad things. What I don’t understand about this is why Trump would do this. He made it clear in his presidential campaign that he didn’t like Muslims but now that he actually is president, these actions are horrible for a man of his position. America is the land of the free, Right? If Muslims want to be in this country but get racially demoralized by some people up to the level of the POTUS, it truly questions whether or not America is truly the land of the free. One of the racist videos that he put out was “Muslim migrant beats up Dutch boy on crutches!” the fact that he would even think of posting this is absolutely absurd and questionable. What’s odd though is that the Dutch Embassy came out and said that this video is unauthentic. So now our President is a racist and he spreads fake news. I would expect this behavior from someone like a white supremacist, not a POTUS.

I have mixed feelings about the president’s ability to use social media freely and how they use it. Social media should be used as a platform to address the general public on a wide scale to inform not to criticize. As it has recently this can cause an uproar from citizens all over the world and cause a distrust in the president and our U.S. government. The u.s. Is already a hated nation and the president’s use of social media lately has not made things better. For example we all know president trump’s opinion on the muslim religion and muslims in or country, we know this based on the hurtful racial slurs he posts on social media. To me this is not ok because we do have muslims in our country that our great citizens in our society and pose no threat to the safety of our country. In the past few weeks president, Trump has posted some very disturbing videos on Twitter displaying Muslims as violent murderers. During the span of his presidency, he has posted several questionable statements about the world, some people in our country and some of his own employees. How do you think this sets an example for the young kids growing up in this country and citizens all over the world whose only knowledge of this country comes from the awful words of our president. Social media is a privilege that the president and other government officials should have as long as it is used wisely and promotes the goodwill of our country.

The President of the United States is better at tweeting than he is at actually being a president. One could argue that Obama used Twitter to get some of his points across to the American public, but at least he knew how to write a grammatically correct tweet. A few tweets once or twice a day, which is a stretch, are okay from the commander-in-chief. But he tweets an average of nine tweets per day. That’s more than one tweet every three hours! He could be golfing during that time! Or, you know, being the President of the United States of America. It’s completely obvious that he writes himself and maybe doesn’t even get them checked before he hits the “Tweet” button to send it to the public. Sometimes, his tweets are taken down by one of his less crazy staffers. Keyword "less". The abundance of grammatically incorrect tweets isn't even the worst part, honestly. The racial, rude and flat out ignorant tweets are the worst part. Retweeting anti-Muslim related tweets, his most recent action, has made me completely lose hope in the leadership in our country. I wonder if the founders of Twitter knew this would happen. If they knew their 140 character tweets would be gateways to this huge division in our country.
