Don't think it's a trump thing , or even something specific to the US. I remember a few years ago, our french prime minister tweeted his condolences to the victim of a terror attack in France.
- 2muchcoffeeman 9y agoI think it's fairly reasonable to tweet condolences or important news. Twitter is widely used and as a government you probably want to spread information as quickly as possible. Tweets are probably made along side more traditional forms of communication. But Trump is just something else. The sheer lack of self control. This is not the behaviour of a leader of a first world nation or for that matter, an adult.
- TheSpiceIsLife 9y ago> This is not the behaviour of a leader of a first world nation or for that matter, an adult. This is factually incorrect.
- baddox 9y agoIt’s clear that the commenter is referring to expected or acceptable behavior of someone in that role. Like if a 30 year old human threw a hissy fit over not having enough cake to eat, you might say they’re not acting like an adult.
- Retra 9y agoAs a government, the need for instantaneous communication is pretty much confined to secure channels. The need to respond immediately was a sloped we slipped down by racing to the bottom.
- blfr 9y agoTrump leveraged a TV show and a Twitter account into the presidency beating two most powerful American political dynasties in the process. Why would you believe that his current tweets are caused by lack of self control?
