SOCIAL MEDIA/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “The always prolific tweeter-in-chief appears to have hit a new record. The president’s @realDonaldTrump account had tweeted and retweeted 115 times by late Thursday [12-12-19] night, marking what could be his most active day on the platform yet. The avalanche came as the House judiciary committee pressed toward a historic vote on Friday [12-13-19] to approve articles of impeachment against him. Trump has noticeably ramped up his tweeting during the impeachment inquiry. He tweeted 77 times on Wednesday [12-11-19] and 105 times on Sunday [12-8-19], repeatedly declaring his innocence and retweeting comments and video of supporters defending his conduct.”
