Quote:Jake Tapper Tells Trump To Stop Throwing Tantrums And Get To Work In Blistering Tweetstorm
By Sean Colarossi on Sat, Jul 1st, 2017 at 1:00 pm
"Attacking media does nothing for the troop in harm's way, the hungry child in Appalachia or inner city, the unemployed factory worker."
CNN’s Jake Tapper went on a blistering tweetstorm on Saturday morning, slamming Donald Trump for using his social media platform to attack his enemies instead of advance policy goals or discuss real issues.
Tapper said the president’s tweeting “does nothing” to solve the problems he promised to address during the campaign.
The epic series of tweets:

More than 10% of tweets fr @realDonaldTrump as president have been attacking journalists. Far fewer discussing troops, opioid crisis, Syria

@realDonaldTrump 2/ ...North Korea, Assad, punishment of Russia for election interference, how to deal with debt/deficit, famine in Africa, education, ...

@realDonaldTrump 3/ plans to rebuild US crumbling infrastructure, tweets specifically using the word "jobs," what to do in Ukraine, crisis in Venezuela,...

@realDonaldTrump 4/ attacking media does nothing for the troop in harm's way, the hungry child in Appalachia or inner city, the unemployed factory worker.
As Tapper noted in his own posts, all of this focus from Trump on attacking his critics does nothing for the people he claimed he would help during the campaign.
But it’s also a demonstration of the president’s disinterest in talking about issues or putting forward substantive policy ideas – because he knows nothing about policy. In fact, some of the only opportunities he takes to discuss issues are when he’s complaining about how “complicated” everything is.
At the end of the day, Tapper is right that the president’s tweets are counterproductive, but attacking his enemies is all Trump knows how to do. Trump has spent a lifetime showing that engaging in public feuds is one of the only things he is good at, and the American people should not have expected that to change after he was elected.
This is what happens when you elect a reality TV star to run the free world.
Yeah he's acting like a man in complete control of
