Feliz Cumpleaños, 生日快乐, Happy Birthday @POTUS... It has now been a year since @realDonaldTrump began his transformation. Today is the first day of the rest of president Trump's political life as he marks the one-year anniversary since he upset Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election.

While some things remain the same from last year’s campaign, such as Trump’s critiques of the establishment and his Twitter tirades. Since taking the oath of office he has tweeted too many times including deleted and retweets. Trump has tweeted 2,461 times since the election. Here's a breakdown of his Twitter use https://usat.ly/2hQfS8a

I worked in Washington, DC as a GM/15-10 while serving under a Republican president, but I have no political affiliation. I can tell you that Trump has transformed our national capital into a city of cultural warfare and abuses the term “fake news” to alienate real journalism like no one has seen since Richard Nixon and remember what happened to him.

I'm no politician, but over the years as a veteran journalist, I have seen up close and personal some of the most famous as well as the infamous ones. From very real presidents to appalling dictators.

There is a difference between being president and acting more or less presidential. There is also a "Bigly" aka really huge difference between so-called reality TV and broadcast journalism. One is the real deal and the other can often be staged to fool viewers. Believe me, that I can tell you!

1 year since the win, Trump still keeps vanquished foe in his sights https://www.apnews.com/372f68a3ae8342fe9ecaa717be746e2a

Has America elected an apprentice who has not figured out how to be president? 'Apprentice' Helps Donald Trump Finally Launch A White House Bid... https://youtu.be/TSVPDrR8GyQ

Have US voters who have historically embraced democracy are finally waking up from a Trump nightmare? Is The Donald the ultimate apprentice and will he ever rise up to his real job? https://youtu.be/qgiWk4zWnJo

Who is Trump talking about when he refers to a failure, a “twisted regime” ruled by a cult tyrant who uses and takes advantage of his people? Have American voters rejected ‘Trumpism’ after Democrats scored major victories in yesterday's elections? http://politics.doseofnews.com/
