Media 'dishonest', Twitter is 'wonderful': Donald Trump

New Delhi : Sticking to what he alleges always, US President Donald Trump once again claimed that much of the press is 'dishonest'; Twitter is a 'wonderful' thing that allows him to bypass the media.

"Maybe I would not be here if it wasn't for Twitter," Trump said in an interview with Fox News.

Much of the press "is not honest... I have close to 100 million people watching me on Twitter, including Facebook and Instagram," he said.

Trump also claimed that with millions of people following him on social media, he has his own form of media to disperse information.

The realDonaldTrump account on Twitter has just over 26 million followers.
