The most powerful man on Earth spent the morning boasting about his 'very powerful Social Media'

President Trump marveled at the power of his Twitter account in a tweet Friday morning. With as many followers as he's amassed on his "powerful Social Media," Trump suggested that he can easily "go around" the "Fake News Media" to get his message out to the people:
Trump also used his "powerful" Twitter account on Friday to blast out messages about how "great" the "economic and jobs numbers" are despite the "phony Witch Hunt going on in America" and to claim that investigators have not been able to offer "any proof" that he's colluded with Russia. "Sad!" Trump wrote to his "over 100 million" followers.
