First time in nearly 12 years!!!!
https://thehill.com/homenews/administrat...d-retweets

First time in nearly 12 years-a president admits he could have made a mistake.


"President Trump acknowledged in an interview released Friday that he “often” regrets his tweets and retweets.

“It used to be in the old days before this, you’d write a letter and you’d say, ‘this letter is really bad,’ you put it on your desk and you go back tomorrow and you say, ‘oh, I’m glad I didn’t send it,’” Trump told Barstool Sports’ founder Dave Portnoy.

“But we don’t do that with Twitter. We put it out instantaneously, we feel great, and then you start getting phone calls, ‘Did you really say this?’ I say, ‘What’s wrong with that?’ And you find a lot of things,” continued the president, who is often the subject of criticism over his use of his Twitter account. “You know what I find? It’s not the tweets, it’s the retweets that get you in trouble....”"

The man isn’t a politician. He’s a real person. That’s what so many loved about him.

Well..If he knows its a problem?...then do something about it. Stop retweeting and calm the fck down on midnight crazy posts on Twitter. Just tweet positive stuff. Thats all he needs to do. Use Twitter as a campaign tool.

Biggest thing he needs to do is not let everyone's tweets or the tv moments from the haters and just ignore them. He tries to win all the battles. Like I told my son and his new bride don't go looking for things to fight about. Worry about the things that will make a difference in your relationship, ignore the petty stuff. I also told them if they treated each other like they treat their co-workers and friends then they'll live a more harmonious life. But instead spouses (and this includes Trump) seem to think that because they're stressed it's okay to lash out on your loved ones when you fighting perhaps your only friend.

He needs to ignore the haters as they'll ALWAYS BE THERE. If you want to Ps them off without saying a thing just post an smiling emoji. No answer required.

Preaching is over.

what's the ol' adage....kill 'em with kindness....

well, I'm of the opinion this battle is another animal...

he picked the fight going in....therefore, he was left w/o choice with the media...hence, #DJTexperiment

this is unchartered territory trying to determine best method...what's been realized is there isn't one....

love it or hate it or in between, that's reality.....the real beauty of his methodology is how he's exposed weakness across the board...the pubs are weak and embedded whilst the donks are pure fk'n evil....that's a major win in my book...

the question that has yet to be answered is how voters react come november... that's gonna define the tale of this tape...

We all need to use the parental guidance functions of our TV's to turn off every network channel that toes the Anti-Trump agenda. Starve those bastards of even a moment's stay on their channel so they never register a view.

I was watching Hunt for Red October on the Sundance channel last night when a BLM commercial aired. That's part of AMC which was initially owned by Rainbow Media. I turned it off and popped in a DVD of the Alamo with the Duke. I felt much better in a few hours.

The issue for all of us, and they leverage they are using against us is that most all of this boils down to a couple of dozen conglomerates most of whom act in concert in an effort to dictate this country's narrative. Switch them off and the advertising revenue goes away, their quarterly projections tank, and their overinflated stock values plummet and the leverage shifts away from them.

Now that's true and good, but the major unresolved issue that is left is that they have used their money to lobby Congress to put their independent competitors out of business. Because of that the bulk of jobs in this nation are tied to their conglomerates.

So what they have done is rigged it so you can't tank them without hurting you, or your children's jobs.

That way they could wrap all of it up as what's good for them is good for America and that rationale is what allows a small cadre of highly manipulative uber wealthy to dictate our morality and values to us, and now they use it to assign blame where there is none and to silence the free voices of men and women for daring to disagree.

They have unleashed hell upon us for electing DJT and thwarting their Globalist Agenda which in their minds was going to give them the riches not just of the United States but of the World and to allow them to shape the future for all of us without our input.

The fatal flaw in their vision is that if they can't control the election of Trump over Hillary with all of the media that they own telling us what to think and how to vote, how in the hell are they going to control the Communist Chinese who are actually using them and their building of infrastructure, and stealing their technology, in an effort to kill us and dominant the world themselves?

Put Buffet, Gates and Soros in a room with Xi when Xi has reached what he thinks is technological parity with them and only one of those leaves the room and he'll be Chinese.

The idea that Corporatism can control the world for good is flawed at both ends. From the Corporate side the adage from Lord Acton is the norm, "Absolute power corrupts absolutely". From the other side the old adage "Feed the bear and when you run out of free food the bear eats you." is applicable only instead of a Bear it's a Dragon.

Caught up in this insanity is the common man in Europe and the United States, and poor population bases around the Pacific Rim all of whom are being exploited by the Corporatists and all of whom are being set up as Dragon food.
