Trump's 'Crazy' Twitter Tweets Come From His Own Phone, 'Normal' Tweets from Staffers

Analysis of Trump tweets by Todd Vaziri, a Visual Effects Director (Avatar, Star Wars), made the analysis after looking at 1390 tweets.

Also, another analysis shows that Trump's staff may be 'grounding' him from Twitter.

The Atlantic

Trump's 'speaking his mind' seems to be a place even his own staffers do not want to see.

With that theory as a jumping off point, data scientist David Robinson of Stack Overflow decided to perform a fascinating statistical analysis of Trump’s tweets and see firsthand what the cold hard data revealed.

All tweets originate from Trump.

Even the staffer ones.
If not the whole "speaks his mind" indoctrination falls flat on its face.


Anyways I like his Twitter rants. Comedy gold.

So?
How many devices does Hillary have?
At least he makes his own statements. Hillary has an army of staff who follow comments all over the 'net, "correcting the record" and bots that repeat the daily mantra. [ what ever that may be ]
Trump may be a loud mouth, but at least he speaks from the heart, Hillary can't answer a question that hasn't been pre approved and then scripted to say just the right thing, to just the right people, at just the right time. Notice how she ignores reporters who ask tough questions? If she doesn't have a scripted answer, fed to her on a teleprompter, she pretends not to hear.

I'd rather read or hear Trump bluster about the economy and jobs, than hear Clinton's pre approved, carefully scripted answers... that answer nothing.

That is sort of the point. Most are not his statements. Only the hyperbolic ones. His own staff doesn;t want him on Twitter.

The article states that the words he uses lead people to feel negativity toward him. He certainly has accomplished that.

This thread proves that Donald Trump has a mind of his own and isn't afraid to speak it, unlike a certain coward in pantsuits.

If his tweets and retweets are an extension of him "speaking his own mind", then that is a scary idea in and of itself.

Doesn't show much for his ability to think before he speaks/tweets.

Possibly. Not a Twitter user myself. I'm just speaking the subject/title of this thread. But I'm sure it will de-evolve into another subject though, like most ATS political threads do after the first page.

I'm proud of Trump - finding a way to circumvent being ignored by the main stream media - unlike Dr. Ron Paul when he was running. Remember, good/bad/indifferent publicity is still publicity. The main stream media definitely will not let Trump out of the people's view...

Seems that he's the one banning news papers and major news agencies from his rallies so who is censoring or trying to censor what gets reported?
He blames everybody but himself for this meltdown of his campaign.
The whole world is laughing at him.

Attacking Hillary should be his method but his ADD won't even allow him the focus needed to do that.
Never has such an ill prepared person ever run for president. NEVER.
He's making a sham of the whole process.

a reply to: carewemust

Yeah and it's driving the voters right over to the pantsuit.
Why isn't trumps clothing ever discussed. Oh right we only objectify women right?.
Right.

Being ignored? Please clarify being ignored.
I see his face on tv day and night.

Hillary has the media doing what she wants . Can you imagine the RNC sending out talking points and those talking points show up in multiple media platforms

Can you image a reporter sending Trump and the RNC has story before he sent it to editor?

Well what exactly is your point?
Circumvent means getting around.
So his need to get around being ignored by main stream media is what you wrote circumvent being ignored by msm.
If he's on tv day and night why would he think he's being ignored that he needs to get around being ignored.
He's not being ignored. His actions keep his face right there day in day out.

Oh? I bet Hillary really wishes she controlled the press. Or had any power like that.
I'm sure if she really had a say she would strike the word email from their vocabulary lists.

Maybe we should ban all speechwriters for politicians.The we can see what is "normal".

Trump completely manipulated the media in order to win the GOP nomination by making outrageous statements that the press loved to report on and which stirred up his base (which wasn't even the majority of the Republican primary voters.)

He's still trying to get free air time by making outrageous remarks except now it's hurting him with the broader electorate he needs to win.

I don't see where he has a legit complaint about his coverage.

Those just happen to be the best tweets.

I noticed this months ago, that The Donald's tweets were the unhinged and badly spelled ones (usually late at night or early in the morning) and the ones with business hours attached to them may have had his 'voice' (just like the book he didn't write) but were a bit more moderate in tone.

When will you people get it? We have a chance to get rid of The Pantsuit AND The Mouth.

The Democratic and Republican parties are both imploding, and good riddance. Time to check out the other actual real, live, sane, non-unhinged, non-lying, non-bought-and-paid-for candidates who are actually willing, able, capable, experienced and sane enough to take on this most important of jobs.

If enough people reject the Pantsuit/Mouth fake dichotomy, THEY won't be able to skew the votes and steal it. Stop buying into the MSM's ring through your nose that you can't have anyone else 'because they can't win'. That's what they said about Bernie until they so obviously blocked him. Don't let them get away with it again.

And all you patriotic flag-waving types? THIS is what your forefathers meant when they said, 'the Tree of Liberty needs watering now and then.' Do you really think your great-grandfather died so you could vote for Trump? Or the other ghastly choice?

Yes. Democracy is a precious gift from our forefathers.

The Jefferson campaign said of adams that he had hideous hermaphroditical character, which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman. Candidates have been razzing each other from the very start.
