President Donald Trump is defending his frequent and often incendiary use of Twitter by saying that the social media platform lets him bypass the dishonest press.
Maybe I would not be here if it wasnt for Twitter, Trump said in an interview with Fox News late Wednesday.
I get such a fake and dishonest press, he said, singling out the CNN news channel and the three main US networks ABC, CBS and NBC.
But Trump said he was not including Fox because I think Fox has been fair to me.
Much of the press is not honest
I have close to 100 million people watching me on Twitter, including Facebook and Instagram, he said.
