US Election & Presidency

Now there's a chilling thought. Trump winning again in 2020.

By 2025 there would only be government run media

Obama did not use his personal twitter while he was President. Trump thinks he's above the law and protocol.

The Presidential press dinner will be very interesting to see what happens with his first one

Maybe they have nothing to say?

One of my US friends on Skype felt exactly the same way as I do about his Twitter

Whereas the media works for nothing? The media don't need to run for office to get power, they have it every day, forever.

If he keeps going as he is with his rants on the press he'll be eating his correspondents dinner alone

^Then he'd have no negative press

Not really, the press have to face the electorate every day. Every article they put out is up for judgement, if the electorate aren't on board, they won't buy, no buyers = no advertisers = no business.
The president only faces re-election every four years, hence it doesn't matter that he has such low approval ratings right now.

Perhaps He is acting outside the law with some of his talk about how they are removing people from the country and won't be let back?

See Dwight Yorke fell foul of it apparently
