Report: Trump's aides have finally taken control over his Twitter account
The newspaper reported that the businessman's advisers successfully convinced him to relinquish control of the social-media platform as part of their efforts to keep him on message in the final stretch of the campaign.
Instead, the Times suggested his spokeswoman, Hope Hicks, was operating the account. An anecdote included in the story was of Trump working with Hicks to craft a tweet criticizing President Barack Obama for his aggressive campaign schedule. Hicks ultimately was the one who sent out the tweet after fine-tuning Trump's initial thoughts.
Throughout the 2016 campaign, Trump regularly used Twitter to attack his rivals. Most recently, he brought controversy upon himself by going on an early-morning tweetstorm against Clinton and a former Miss Universe following the first debate.
