6 Times We Cringed When @realDonaldTrump Tweeted

Let's delve a little deeper into why our President-Elect shouldn't have a Twitter.

6 Times We Cringed When @realDonaldTrump Tweeted
Time Magazine

Ah, the President-Elect. The man who has gained much publicity for the majority of his life - plenty good and plenty bad. The people-savvy, tech-savvy, and yes, Twitter-savvy man. Regardless if you voted for President-Elect Donald Trump or not, I think we can all agree that he should not own a Twitter. Or, he should at least have a closer monitor at what he says.

Here are six times (out of many) that I cringed when I saw a @realDonaldTrump tweet.

1) This tweet might be my favorite. Donald Trump has been seen multiple times talking to celebrities such as Kanye West, Mike Tyson, Kid Rock, etc. I can guarantee you that we'll see plenty of "A" list celebrities come Jan. 20.

2) Like the Doritos commercial, don't touch my Doritos and DON'T INSULT MY GIRL MERYL.

3) For the love of God, please give it up about Hillary already!!!

4) While I appreciate Donald Trump informing us of potentially false news, I can't help but wince at him calling a state "sorry." Like, aren't you going to be the President of all the states now? If you wish for more support and unity, calling a state "sorry" won't win their hearts.


5) Oh dear gracious, man, don't call people stupid and fools! Educate them on why having a deal with Russia is a good thing, not a bad.


6) Again, insulting Hillary supporters and Democrats will not get you anywhere.


There comes a time when one must realize what is appropriate to post and what is not. One thing I hope that Donald Trump realizes during his presidency is learning the trait of being slow to speak. I think we can all agree that with unity will come peace, but it will first come with an open-minded leader who addresses both sides - Republican and Democrat.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
