Donald Trump credits Twitter for becoming US President
US President Donald Trump said on Friday that he has reached the position where he is now because of Twitter and the social media platform helps him get around the media. "(I) probably wouldn't be here right now, but very seldom. We have a tremendous group of people that listen and I can get around the media when the media doesn't tell the truth, so I like that," Trump told reporters at a joint White House news conference with visiting German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
