so far he live in his own reality

Oh, hi
How is he hiding behind twitter?
We've gone from CSpan to Twitter, beautiful, guess Trumpkins only think in 160 characters
Twitter does answer questions nor explain policy, would be nice to know job he intends to "make America great" in more than three quick phrases

He's not hiding behind twitter, he's using it. Sure, he's gonna stick his foot in his mouth more than once or twice but we are going to get what he is saying without media bias or filters, that is a good thing.
He promised during the campaign that if elected he was going to scale his tweeting way back. It hasn't happened yet so I consider it just another lie.

Maybe he meant when he becomes president.

He gets his thoughts across and many times you can tell his policy by his tweets. Using twitter he has more people listen to more of what he is thinking than by giving press conferences that pretty much no on listens to and are forgotten in a day.
Perhaps you want to make the call back to 1980's?
Point "what he is saying" isn't substantial, just personal opinions in brief form

You mean like the Boeing tweet? That tweet had an impact.
Deal with it, this is a new millennium, I don't have problem with him using it. But, I disagree if he only uses that medium.

Really? How does one explain Trumpcare in a tweet? Are we going to see his strategy to address ISIS in a tweet? Is his trade policy detailed in a tweet?
Twitter is social media, you don't govern via social media, public policy isn't comparable to what you think about ice cream. It's not 21st Century, it's moronic.
It did? Yeah, next time Boeing wants something they'll just threaten to export contracts, and to prove it, you can't explain anything that was concluded with Boeing beyond a Twitter phrase
Yeah, his victory speech was only 160 characters.
Did he deliver that via Twitter?
And it was nothing more than campaign rhetoric with next to zero content, just as his first Address to Comgress will be, lot of making something without the how

Its really just messages from the president via Twitter.
The mainstream media just has their knickers in a twist because they no longer distort things.

Not so. And Donald doesn't? How many times is he going to reschedule his press conference? What's his day by day changing stance on healthcare. And your boy doesn't lie or distort reality?
