His reasoning may have to do with the idea that Twitter tends to shut down conservatives either banning them permanently, or putting them in "Twitter Jail" with a temporary suspension, but he didn't mention that notion.
“The vast majority of the electorate is not on Twitter reading Trump’s tweets and being convinced by that,” Williams told the Communist News Network in an interview someplace in Canada called Toronto.
“What they’re convinced much more by is the destructive power of Fox News, which is much, much more powerful and much more destructive than Twitter.”
Yes, Twitter doesn't destroy--it deletes. Fox News uses opinion hosts like Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham, but they also have real reporting by people such as Brett Baier, Shannon Bream, and even the liberal Shep Smith. What other major news network has a conservative host? Name one.
Williams admitted that President Trump is a “master” of the platform, telling CNN’s Donnie O’Sullivan: “What Trump has done with Twitter is pretty genius, frankly.”
I wouldn't necessarily call Trump a "genius" but I would certainly call him the king of trolling. Anyone who wins the Democratic nomination for the 2020 race, better have thick skin, certainly thicker than Trump's. He counterpunches everyone who has something negative to say about him, and that's his biggest problem. He needs to know when not to "punch down."
But the fact is, virtually all of the media is well left of center, with CNN and MSNBC furthest to the left. The leftist media have never erred on the side of Trump whenever they've "made a mistake" in their so-called reporting, and they have attacked him incessantly since even before he entered the race for the presidency.
