Who is the real Trump on Twitter?

As a Twitterati, more often than not, I have found Republican Party nominee Donald Trump's tweets sexist and racist. Some of my friends find them amazingly funny too. I seriously don’t. Some call him a filthy rich dimwit with no sense of politics than some others find him a nerd.

Ever wondered, why so much discrepancy? Why are the sentiments so different, poles apart?

Yes we have a explanation, in a way, Twitter can explain that.

According to TweetDeck, Trump’s tweets fall into two categories. Basically, Trump uses Samsung Galaxy smartphone, and according to the data, the tweets from @realDonaldTrump sent via Android read and sound very different to those sent from an iPhone, which has to be some poor staffer’s work.

With so many different opinions and reactions, a data scientist David Robinson decided to do some bit of analysis on this man and has added sound evidence for Twitter’s theory. After analyzing the language and behavior used in the two types of Trump tweets he concluded that "the Android and iPhone tweets are clearly from different people," and that compared to his ghost-written self, the real Trump uses words associated with fear, anger, and sadness.

David states that Trump's real Android tweets are mainly sent in the morning, while those coming from an iPhone are sent in the afternoon and early evening. Also, Trump's habit of manually retweeting others happens nearly exclusively in tweets sent from Android, while tweets sent via iPhone were 38 times more likely to contain either a picture or a link.

Also, the tweets from iPhone make sense, as these tweets tend to be announcements of one sort or another — exactly the sort of administrative message that campaign staff would need to publicize.
Here, we share two tweets from both the Trump's account to explain the difference:

The media is going crazy. They totally distort so many things on purpose. Crimea, nuclear, "the baby" and so much more. Very dishonest! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2016

With his sentiment analysis, Robinson also compared the types of words used by Trump's Android-tweets and iPhone-tweets. The results are attached below:

"Trump’s Android account uses about 40 to 80 percent more words related to disgust, sadness, fear, anger, and other 'negative' sentiments than the iPhone account does," writes Robinson, adding that "the positive emotions weren’t different to a statistically significant extent."

Hence, the mystery behind Trump's (sometimes) illogical tweets which creates an atmosphere of fear, anger, distrust, and suspicion isn't just an electoral strategy for Trump — it's also part of his character.

Kudos to the staffer who is trying to control the damage!!
