There were more red warning flags flapping around the Oval Office last week than on the Atlantic beaches of Florida.
Hurricane Dorian may have given the Sunshine State a miss, but Typhoon Trump is still huffing and puffing to blow his electoral chances out to sea.
Back during the Bubba era, there was something known as “Clinton Fatigue,” occasioned by an endless parade of tawdry scandals, so many it was hard to keep track of them: sex, money, foreign influence and even the occasional mysterious demise or two — not to mention impeachment.

Trump could really help his re-election tremendously if he could avoid tweeting. I don't understand why he can't give it a rest. I am one that likes his policies but his tweeting really at times is offensive. Don't take everything so personally.

I agree with #2 but I also remember how GWB handle his critics. He refused to stand up to them because it wasn't "Presidential". His critics sited that as proof that their criticisms were true. He was president twice but this mistake gave us Obama. America deserved better.

I don't receive President Trump's (or anyone else's) tweets. I've long since tuned out the ignorant duplicitous socialist jackals that run the media, including google and Microsoft (both of the latter pepper their users daily with anti-Trump news and tidbits) (which I've learned to totally ignore). I know that President Trump is doing a great job, especially when you consider the enormous number and variety of Leftists and mock conservatives, who do their best to destroy him and his policies every single day (if not oftener). What President Trump has accomplished against great odds is outstanding.
I also know that the Democrat candidates for president are all hard Leftists, some openly so, some more deceptively so. As a group I consider them opportunistic, avaricious, dishonest, and unqualified even for a seat on my local city council. They are the personification of the deep state, and their ability to govern and/or to solve problems is nil. Nothing would make me vote for any one of them. Mr. Trump could (and might) do just about anything, and I will vote for him.

"Promiscuous " tweeting? The whole thing is a sideways hit . Walsh does not understand Trump as evidence by this piece.

Bullhockey. The Post has always been against Trump, from NeverTrumper to moderately against, but essentially never Pro Trump.

Pres. Trump, Republicans who haven't bailed and are running for Congress, and all his supporters need to approach the 2020 elections like they are 10 points down and have to fight every day. Let's face it, the media, academia, Hollyweird, the never-Trumpers want us to think we're only a few crazy racists. We fight that every day, but do not take anything for granted. Just 70,000 voters in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania led Donald Trump to victory in 2016. That's basically a rounding error.

PDT may be huffing and puffing, but his tweets are the truth vs. the constant daily lying of the LSM, of which the Bezos Post is one of the leaders. If huffing and puffing lies were to cause you to lose an election, Pelosi, Schumer and a whole gaggle of democrats would be out of office!

With all due respect, if you don't understand the power of tweeting then you don't understand how to win.
It is our secret weapon that this president and only this president has created. He is brilliant.
And if the Left doesn't know that we recognize their narratives, such as the one attempting to be created in this article, a billion miles off they are stuck on stupid. Sorry Left, we are on HIGH ALERT FROM NOW TO Nov. 2020.

Another snotty little piece by a never Trumper. The President , his family and his supporters are viciously assaulted on every media platform existing. Attacked for wearing hats, opining our beliefs. or sharing the tweets our President sends out. Simply by defending himself, his administration, family or us, he is vilified.I will never stop my support for the man. His accomplishments, given all the filth, lies and back stabbing he has endured, are historic.

I have a question for people who complain about Trump's tweets. Do you folks LIKE to be called racists? Do you LIKE being called misogynists? Do you LIKE being called a Nazi? Do you LIKE being called deplorable, stupid, hateful, evil, etc., etc., etc.? Do you LIKE being called a liar? Would you LIKE being falsely labeled a Russian stooge, a traitor? Would you LIKE being falsely accused of obstruction of justice? Would you LIKE being illegally spied on by the government? Would you LIKE your significant accomplishments to be ridiculed and diminished? Would you LIKE being attacked negatively and unfairly in 92% of the information published about you?
These are the things Trump tweets in response to. The vast majority of what Trump tweets is truth.
If all these things were said about YOU, what kind of patsy would you be to accept such condemnation, degradation, and ridicule without response? Would you be able to walk the streets around your home without feeling people were looking at you with disapproval, even though it was completely unjustified? If the local newspaper joined the attacks, WHAT mechanism would you use to respond? Or would you "nobly" suffer the attacks until you were destroyed?
Further, don't you realize this is a tactic the Left has been using to attack opponents for decades. They have been more subtle in the past because the threat was less. Trump's great strides has increased the Left's despiration because it is exposing their failures and their weaknesses. Trump has essentially proven that the Left is incompetent to govern, that they are not honest brokers, and that they hate our Country. If that truth spreads, they would never win another presidency. The Left KNOWS this. They are more vicious because their vile political existence is on the line.
The next time Trump tweets, think about what the truth is, not what the media says it is, and what, exactly, is on the line. The stakes are enormous and we need to win, not wimp.

If Trump stopped tweeting he would allow the left to define him... but of course, that's the point isn't it Miss Walsh.

I'd like it if the President would use Twitter and old school media to promote his ideas and ignore the celebrities who are constantly on the attack. Post achievements and goals on a daily basis.
The administration needs explain the importance of the trade battle with China. That some businesses and consumers might suffer a bit now but in the long run we will all benefit. Use Twitter and every other form of media to combat the doom the nightly news pushes regarding tariffs and the trade-war.

'Trump trauma' sounds like another media manufactured talking point. They will try anything to silence Trump. As for scandals, they were manufactured by the media and the rest of the left. There is nothing there. 'Trump trauma' might cause Trump to lose in 2020? Not buying it. Trump is refreshingly different from the politics as usual that we have seen for decades. The only people traumatized by Trump are his critics.
The media are experts at manipulating public opinion without the public being aware of it. Therefore no Twitter, Facebook, or TV news.
Lucianne and the local news from the radio are enough to keep me informed.

Some day, historians will write about how tweets helped save America. The Bush and Romney wing of the Republican party are terrified of the democrats, afraid they will criticize them for supporting President Trump"s tweets.

Trump trauma from what? Loads of jobs being created? A humming economy? Worthless regulations gotten rid of which stifled business? Effectively making America great again? The only trauma I see is the WaPo, especially Walsh.
