Two Ways to Make Trump’s Tweets Less Awful
The President’s Twitter account is an unprecedented communication strategy, a series of messages that strike fear into the heart of any American who wants, I don’t know, to avoid war or preserve the constitution. But his Twitter tirades, as bizarre and chaotic as they often are (“covfefe”), are at least a window to his thought processes. I mean, I know better what he’s thinking than I do n’t .
But that doesn’t make it any easier to read these misspelled children’s tirades. Fortunately, there is a new Chrome plugin that automatically converts the text of his tweets to a colored font.
Childish on my part? Little. But the font reminds me that we are not dealing with a functioning adult here, and we should never pretend that we are.
Prefer a more serious strategy of getting through the president’s personal news channel? Try subscribing to @RealPressSecBot , which gives you all of Trump’s tweets in the format of an official White House statement. It also does not make their job easier, but juxtaposition of format and content of minors serves as a daily reminder: this is not normal.
