Good question.
Via TPM:
In an interview Monday morning, Donald Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway dismissed concerns about the President-elect’s penchant for using Twitter to take potshots at critics.
“Is this really how he’s going to spend his time as president?” CNN host Chris Cuomo asked Conway.
“He has over 25 million followers on Facebook and Twitter and it’s a great way for him to take his message directly to people, cut through the noise or the silence,” Conway said. “Important things that he’s saying and doing are getting zero coverage.”
“That’s not what he’s tweeting about,” Cuomo pointed out. “He says that ‘Hamilton’ is overrated.”
“That’s his opinion,” Conway replied. “I’m going! I’m taking my 12-year-olds for their birthday.”
“But I’m saying, why take it up?” Cuomo said. “Why take up SNL? No president does that. Why take it up? Why waste the time? Why distract?”
“But why do you care?” Conway said. “Who is to say that he can’t do that?”
