'The Presidency and Social Media is the essential and authoritative guide on the use and impact of social media in the 2016 presidential campaign. This impressive and comprehensive volume exposes the good, the bad, and the ugly influence of social media in 2016 but also provides clues to future campaigns. The volume, without question, is the go to source for understanding the evolving role of media in political campaigns.' - Robert E. Denton, Jr., W.

'Social media played an unprecedentedand complicatedrole in the 2016 presidential election. Schill and Hendricks have assembled work by impressive scholars that examines this phenomenon from multiple perspectives. The volume is relevant beyond the electoral context, as the tactics employed in the campaign have carried over to governing in unanticipated ways. This rich and comprehensive work is destined to be a landmark in studies of social media, especially as scholars, practitioners, and the public seek to understand the consequences of social-media driven elections and "government by tweet."' - Diana Owen, Associate Professor of Political Science, Georgetown University
