 Trump’s tweets ‘a gold mine’ for Mueller probe

The president's running public commentary gives investigators real-time insight into the intent behind his actions – and could create problems for him or his aides.

President Donald Trump’s Twitter feed – packed with more than 35,000 time-stamped missives dating to 2009 – offers a treasure trove of evidence for Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his growing team of investigators, according to lawyers and veterans of past White House scandals.

Like emails, handwritten notes or transcribed Oval Office conversations, the @realdonaldtrump account gives investigators a detailed timeline of Trump’s thoughts and opinions – including where they might differ from official accounts – and can also be used to establish intent, which can be critical in a criminal investigation.

Now prove he made them.

Trump is a FOOL to continue with his 'tweets' given all the grief he has brought on himself with them. But, like any addiction, he seems unable to control himself.


I have no way of knowing if this is true, but I suspect his constant 'tweeting' is a factor in why his communications people quit. How can anyone be a good communications official, or a good PR professional, if the client insists on doing all of his communication and PR on his own? And Trump 'communicates' without any kind of oversight of any kind including legal advice, public relations advice, and even simple editing. This worked for him when he was a simple candidate who nobody thought would actually win. But now, everything Trump writes is a reflection of the United States as a nation. Things are different now and Trump does not seem to recognize this. He does not understand the power his words have all around the world. Working on Trump's communications staff would be frustrating to say the least.

If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Playing devil's advocate, it is often said that Reagan went around the press, directly to the American people.

Further, Trump seems to have confounded his opponents, the mainstream media with his knack for 144 character messaging, in an age of such new tools.

But I'm ready to concede, now as Potus he needs to moderate and filter this tool, to avoid misunderstanding.

Got that, COVFEFE* ?
