You can’t govern by id. Trump sees them [tweets] as a direct, “unfiltered” conduit to the public. What he doesn’t quite understand is that for him -- indeed, for anyone -- they are a direct conduit from the unfiltered id.* They erase whatever membrane normally exists between one’s internal disturbances and their external manifestations. For most people, who cares? For the president of the United States, there are consequences. When the president’s id speaks, the world listens. -- Source.
*According to Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory of personality, the id is the personality component made up of unconscious psychic energy that works to satisfy basic urges, needs and desires. (The consciousness is centered in the first chakra, the lowest of the seven chakras.) The id operates based on the pleasure principle, which demands immediate gratification of needs. See Chakras.
