Is Donald Trump’s phone his most powerful tool in office? From announcing ceasefires and trade deals to commenting on military actions like the recent strikes on Iran, Trump has used social media -especially his platform, Truth Social- as a direct line to the public. But what does this say about his presidency? And who's really behind those late-night posts? On this episode, Caitríona Perry, Sumi Somaskanda, and Bernd Debusmann Jr dive into the “social media presidency” of Donald Trump. They also look at the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, where former Governor Andrew Cuomo placed second behind Zohran Mamdani.
