        He might be a symptom of a bigger problem for sure, but he’s a terrible symptom that really reduces quality of life.

        Twitter loses standing after this administration. Politicians mostly don't know how to make newsworthy tweets. Journalists addiction to the platform will remain but be harder to justify, so they will keep it quieter.
