Trump is a tagger. He uses Twitter like graffiti to shout-out opinions, reactions and rants. One hundred and forty characters hardy describe complex events. It does not seem like a feasible way to bypass traditional news media unless you consider slogans, clichés and name-calling news. Twitter is a narrow channel of communication. So I think it’s more like graffiti. Gangs use graffiti to mark territory and insult rival gangs. Perhaps Trump represents a wider cross-section of the population than I give him credit for.
