By Josh FeldmanMar 22nd, 2021, 10:21 pm
Donald Trump claimed on Monday night that he actually likes his press releases better than tweeting and that Twitter actually did him a favor.
Trump, of course, was very active on Twitter for years, especially during his presidency, until he was permanently suspended mere days following the riots at the Capitol after he pushed multiple baseless claims about the 2020 election. Trump gave an interview to Newsmax on Monday and Greg Kelly asked him about what one of his spokespeople hinted at about his return to social media.
The former president brought up his press releases one recent statement continued pushing his baseless 2020 election claims and said, Frankly theyre more elegant than tweeting, as the expression goes. Theyre really much more elegant. And the word is getting out.
He boasted about the amount of attention he gets for those press releases, before adding, The tweeting gets you in trouble.

And he knows his political career is over without Twitter or something like it.
