(CNN)President Donald Trump is preparing to expand his social media team, big league.
The
White House is expected to hire new staffers this week to work with the
President on his posts for Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, a senior
administration official told CNN.
Up
until now, Trump and his social media director Dan Scavino have
essentially handled the President's tweets on their own. Trump typically
dictates his often provocative Twitter posts to Scavino who then hits
"tweet."
Scavino,
a longtime aide who worked his way up from the job of caddy to general
manager at one of Trump's golf courses, then on to social media director
during the campaign, has carried much of the White House digital load
himself at all hours of the day and night.
