Note to Journalists: When the GOP politician says "I don't follow his (Trump's) tweets." you need to

respond with
"Why don't follow his tweets?
Don't you think the things the President of the United States directly tells the world are important?
Do you think his tweets are irrelevant?
Do you think it's important to know what the President thinks?
Do you consider them official statements of United States policy?
Do you not follow them because you don't like the President?"

FOLLOW UP directly instead of letting them pretend to not know anything about your question.
