Democrats Need to Make Trump's Tweeting a Campaign Issue

A few days ago I watched a David Pakman video in which Pakman discussed how Donald Trump had tweeted 70 times in one day. Watching that video I began to think the Democratic Party should make Donald Trump's tweeting a campaign issue. How can this man do the job of President if he is spending all, most, or part of his day tweeting? There has to be a way to make this a issue in the campaign.

driven world, which has revolutionized, expanded and surpassed the traditional communication methods I grew up with, I am also pretty goddamn sick and tired of governance and diplomacy being conducted via tweet(s) under the Trump regime.

even if he kissed Putin’s behind while simultaneously executing an American soldier in public, ~30-35% of Americans won’t believe what their eyes saw.

So his tweets don’t matter as a campaign issue, the people that are for him don’t care and those that oppose him have already incorporated the tweets into their views.
