Trump says he won’t stay off social media
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleUS President Donald Trump may be trying for a reset in the West Wing, but he is making clear that he is not changing his Twitter habit.
On Twitter Tuesday, Trump said: “Only the Fake News Media and Trump enemies want me to stop using Social Media (110 million people). Only way for me to get the truth out!”

The tweet comes one day after retired General John Kelly took over as Trump’s new chief of staff.
Tapped to bring order to the chaotic West Wing, Kelly quickly made his presence known on Monday — ousting newly appointed communications director Anthony Scaramucci and revising the command structure so that all senior staffers report to him.
