Its crazy how much importance is put into shittalking on twitter by our elected and newsources,next we might find them commenting on youtube under the latest Ben Shapiro video.

Probably because Trump has actually dictated policy from Twitter.  You cannot dismiss the President of the United States making public comments on Twitter as if it doesn't have weight.  Its officially from him and the implementations saying the wrong thing has consequences.  So yes, if the President uses Twitter, Youtube or any form of media to put out his message its as good as any source.  I really cannot believe you are trying to say it doesn't have an impact.

Bolded: Do not give me a narrative that isnt mine,i never said that.

I do think that there is too much focus put on social media reactions yes, and it ofcourse has an impact but do the consequences resolve even sporadically into something fruitfull other than the current trend of feeding echochambers? Highly doubtfull its worth all the division over dumb tweets so again i do think there is too much focus on trivial blabber on social media by all sides and not just the Trump "side" that popped up before your eyes when reading my comment.
