News Reading and Response

The Covfefe Act

The Covfefe Act sounds silly, but it addresses a legitimate issue. "In order to maintain public trust in government, elected officials must answer for what they do and say; this includes 140-character tweets," said Quigley in the release. "President Trump's frequent, unfiltered use of his personal Twitter account as a means of official communication is unprecedented. If the President is going to take to social media to make sudden public policy proclamations, we must ensure that these statements are documented and preserved for future reference." I can agree with Quigley. The President of the United States should have his social media posts watched over before they're posted. If Trump would've had someone watch over the tweet he sent out, he wouldn't need to worry about this becoming a problem.
