Social media has been a big impact on politics this past couple of years. Obama was the first to use Twitter to follow up with younger voters. He did that to gain the votes of younger people he wanted to appeal to them. All the articles show how social media use in politics has increased. It is used as a platform for politicians for there campaigns. It has exceeded more and more as time and technology improve. our former president uses social media a lot. President Trump uses Twitter a lot to communicate with the public. Although most people would say that what he posts some people may not agree with. They think that a lot of his posts are inappropriate. Instead of using the platform to speak to the people. He uses it to express how feels about certain things. But as president it does not look good.
I would agree with the articles and how they talk about the change in campaigns. Since technology is advancing and more people are using it. politicians want to get people to notice them and to follow them so they go on social media because it is was everyone is using. That is how trump gets his followers and gets the public to see what he is doing and talking about every day. It is a platform where there is communication with the public. This is how society has changed us and the way we interact with each other. Now more even in a broader sense of politics and news and things that are important in the country.
