RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

TRUMP: "Such an interesting question because I have friends that say oh don’t use social media. See I don’t call it tweets. Tweeting is like a typewriter. When I put it out, you put it immediately on your show. I mean, the other day I put something out. Two seconds later I’m watching your show it is up."
BARTIROMO: "You are right. We’re watching your Twitter feed."
TRUMP: "They’re well crafted. I was always a good student. I’m a person that does well with that kind of thing. I doubt I would be here if it weren’t for social media to be honest with you. There is a fake media out there. I get treated unfairly by the media. I have a tremendous platform between Instagram and Twitter and Facebook. When somebody says something about me, I’m able to take care of it. The other way I wouldn’t be able to get the word out"
