As an analyst, including my time years ago as a CIA consultant doing research in the 80s, I'd have considered that a gold mine. /4

These are all things I would have given anything to know, even just a fraction of this, in an analysis of any Soviet or Russia leader. /13
It's not for me to tell the President how to communicate. But I find something hugely dangerous in revealing real-time POTUS reactions. /14x

Didn't that ship sail? Seems like foreign interests would have had a complete grasp on the man and his abilities by inauguration day
-
In fact, I'd say his tweets only serve as a random check-in to the confirm what they already know. That and the entertainment factor.
-
Yea I'd have to agree. In this case, because they likely have volumes of info on Trump already.
-
True, but as a measure of his take on immediate, current matters and possible direction he could take, these tweets do offer some insight
-
Though I do allow the slim possibility that they're some cunning, calculated tactic used to distract and disinform.
-
But that's a tad machivellian for what seems, essentially, a bumbling toddler who doesn't think more than 2 seconds ahead

He's your and OUR President; it IS for us to tell him how to communicate. He doesn't get what being a public servant means.
-
He really isn't a public servant. I know that's his job title but it's not what he's actually doing. And he doesn't want to do it.

It's not just the President we should worry about. We're all at risk for psychological profiling & influence ops. https://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/testimonies/CT400/CT473/RAND_CT473.pdf …pic.twitter.com/b4S7wFteCx

Not necessarily. You're qualified as a poli sci expert at this point. Its fair to critique his process of communication. Its less than ideal

It's like a farce of 13 Days, with McNamara standing in front of a giant tweetdeck saying, "DON'T YOU GET IT? THIS IS COMMUNICATION!"
-
Needless to say, while compromising for any POTUS, it would not be as bad with a man of stable temperament and ordinary knowledge.
-
If he had that, he wouldn't be tweeting

This may be the most astute and reasoned argument against Trumps tweets that i have ever heard, 100% spot on.

Which is why Trump will never listen to
