Right, that one.
White House Chief of Staff John Kelly just ignores it, he told reporters on Sunday.
"Someone, I read the other day, said we all just react to the tweets," Kelly said, per the Los Angeles Times . "We don't."
"I don't," Kelly added. "I don't allow the staff to."
"We know what we're doing," he continued. "... Believe it or not, I do not follow the tweets. I find out about them. But for our purposes, my purpose, is we make sure the president is briefed up on what he's about to do."
"They are what they are," Kelly concluded, before saying the White House develops policy in the "normal traditional staff way" rather than via presidential Twitter decree.
Not paying attention to Donald Trump's tweets is a luxury all of us wish we could indulge in more often! But the White House has been clear whatever he posts constitutes official statements . So perhaps Kelly could come back on down to reality town, where there are real consequences whenever the guy decides to take his 280 characters out for a spin.
