Name calling. Unceremonious firings. A transgender ban in the military.

All are features of President Trump's Twitter repertoire from the past year.

His non-stop barrage of post-election tweets — many of which are policy proposals or feuds that seem take his White House by surprise — often leave his spokespeople with a now-frequent refrain: "The tweet speaks for itself."

When Donald Trump won the election one year ago, political and media circles wondered if this would quash his Twitter habit.

It did not.

Since the election on Nov. 8, 2016, the president has tweeted 2,461 times as of Tuesday (including retweets and deleted tweets). That adds up to, on average, about six to seven tweets per day. (Still, that's less than half the number of times compared to the previous year. From Nov. 8, 2015, to Nov. 8, 2016, he tweeted 4,994 times, an average of about 13-14 tweets a day.)

His 140-character missives gets retweeted tens of thousands of times and set the tone for a national conversation on a daily basis.

Here's a breakdown of how Trump has used Twitter since the election, with the help of the Trump Twitter Archive.

Fake News

The first time Trump appears to have used the phrase “fake news” on Twitter was more than a month before he took office. That time, it was about CNN, the organization that he would continue to criticize repeatedly during his time in office.

Fake news generally refers to stories that appear on social media — occasionally at the hands of Russians — and get widely circulated before they are debunked. But Trump uses it to refer to stories produced by longstanding news organizations.

“Reports by @CNN that I will be working on The Apprentice during my Presidency, even part time, are ridiculous & untrue - FAKE NEWS!” he tweeted on Dec. 10, 2016.

Trump was referring to a story saying he intended to remain an executive producer on The Celebrity Apprentice. The show’s studio, MGM, told outlets that Trump’s name would continue to appear in the credits.

When the show premiered in January, Trump was indeed listed.

Calling news stories "fake" is a pattern for the president. The stories he has deemed as “fake news” and “fake” – he’s used the terms 167 times since winning the election – have run the gamut.

The ongoing investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election, including the special counsel's indictments unveiled in October? Fake news.

March meeting not going well with Germany’s Angela Merkel? Fake news.

Reports in October that he wanted to increase the nuclear arsenal? Fake news.

Just a couple weeks into his administration, he claimed that reports of a tense conversation he had with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull were fake news. But months later, leaked transcripts revealed that the two world leaders did argue about a refugee resettlement agreement.

Of course, his attacks on the media organizations have gone beyond calling “fake.” Some organizations have received nicknames (the 29 tweets related to the “failing New York Times” and the three tweets about the “Amazon Washington Post”, referring to the Post's owner, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos), while his most retweeted tweet since the election called CNN “Fraud News” and featured a GIF of him wrestling with the news network.

The announcements

Since becoming president, someone has built @RealPressSecBot, a bot that turn Trump’s tweets and puts them into a template resembling official statements from the White House.

And given the way that he has handled major news, it's not an unfounded concept.

On any given morning, Trump will defend a new policy, such as the various iterations of the travel ban. Or he'll criticize something he doesn't like, such as Obamacare.

But he's taken it a step further as president by using the platform to make actual announcements with consequences.

It’s how he announced what day he was specifically going to make a Supreme Court pick, just days after his inauguration:

It’s how he announced a ban on transgender troops in July:

And it’s how he’s announced firings and hirings, from his FBI director nominee Christopher Wray, to the dumping of his chief of staff, Reince Priebus, and the hiring of Priebus's replacement, John Kelly.

The feuds

Feuds are far from a new thing for Trump. He fought with actress and TV personality Rosie O’Donnell for years. He fought with his fellow GOP candidates during the primary.

Being president has not put a stop to that. He’s fighting with both Republican and Democratic politicians, media figures and world leaders.

And here's the thing: Sometimes, he seems to realize that, on some level, this isn't what a typical president does.

"While not at all presidential I must point out that the Sloppy Michael Moore Show on Broadway was a TOTAL BOMB and was forced to close. Sad!" he tweeted in October, offering his commentary on "The Terms of My Surrender." (For the record, Moore's show was only slated to run for 12 weeks total on Broadway.)

After Bob Corker called him unstable and erratic, Trump lashed out that the Republican senator from Tennessee was a “lightweight” who “couldn’t get elected dog catcher.”

He has hurled insults at the hosts of “Morning Joe,” Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough.

And he has repeatedly blasted North Korean leader Kim Jong Un over Twitter — which some lawmakers, including Corker, have said is not constructive to diplomatic efforts.

Others he's called out on Twitter: the cast of Hamilton, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, celebrity Arnold Schwarzenegger and the Golden State Warriors.
