Schumer: ‘America Cannot Afford a Twitter Presidency’

‘We Democrats will make sure government works for every American in reality, not just on TV and on Twitter’

EXCERPT:

SCHUMER: "With all due respect, America cannot afford a Twitter presidency. We have real challenges and we have real needs to get things done. And many Americans are afraid, Mr. President-elect, that instead of rolling up your sleeves and forging serious policies, for you, Twitter suffices. There’s nothing wrong with using Twitter to speak to the American people. It’s a good use of modern media. But these issues are complex and demand both careful consideration and action. We cannot tweet them away."
