POLI-TRICKS: He is a television and tabloids kind of guy.

He is a television and tabloids kind of guy. After all, broadcast
and publishing platforms helped make him a star. Page Six crowned
him the unofficial king of New York’s gossip pages in the 1980s and
1990s. The reality-TV craze of the 2000s ensured he remained a
household name. Today, it has been suggested that you can
tell which cable news station  he is watching by tracking
his tweets—which at times seem to be direct responses to whatever’s
being said on air. (Often, Fox News.) His love of television
notwithstanding, he is very much a president for the internet
age—and not only because, with his infamously trigger-happy Twitter
finger, he is making full use of the self-publishing power of the
internet. In fact, he has a decades-long presence online.
