Trump was the first terminally online president. So did anyone actually tweet their way into his inner circle and power?

he was not terminally online, he was terminally watching tv and tweeting about tv

Hmm interesting distinction 🤔 . Still feels like he was on here all the time, whatever the initial source.

iirc he also consumed all the paper print newspapers... he was good at online manipulation but he is fundamentally an offline person, obsessed with seeing himself in old media, and with people he deals with in person
his main audience is also tv watchers who then find him online
