Donald Trump never uses computers, doing everything with a pen and paper, according to aides

"He's an analog guy," one top adviser told , explaining that he had never seen his boss on a computer or using a phone for anything other than a call.

Trump has admitted himself that he does not actually type out his tweets himself.

On November 23, 2011, he tweeted: “I dictate my tweets to my executive assistant and she posts them. ‘Time is money’---The Art of the Deal.”

But insiders have revealed he does everything on paper, scribbling down instructions or messages and getting aides to scan them into computers and email them to the right people.

One advisor told how he would trawl through newspaper copies as he sat in Trump Tower, searching for coverage of himself.

They described how he would leaf through the pages with a pen in his hand, making notes and highlighting parts of stories.
