I hope for a pledge, from all the candidates: no governing by twiting, no communicating by twiting

not informing of new policies and agreement by twiting.

Please?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

This issue is the message, not the platform. Should we also stop campaign speeches because Trump expresses intolerant thoughts?

These twits come form itchy fingers, with no thinking ahead.

I suspect that most twits are like that. And this is why so many non-Trumpians are often by apologies.

I don't think 'twiting' is a word.

Nothing more. It should be regarded as such. It has its place in modern media.

But as social media? Oh, please. People react to tweets but I’ve seen very little engagement and conversation.
