The Atlantic's Donald Trump Tweet Tracker analyses significant Trump tweets, noting political and historical context as well as Trump's grudges and past actions. Trump's longest break from Twitter, for example, came over the 2016 Thanksgiving Day weekend - soon after he had been elected. Now he's illustrated the most incredible tweets. Wow!
