You're right. Usually, president-elects have had a few press conferences by now.

How long does it take to have a press conference versus putting out a tweet?
Not nearly enough information, especially info provided by a president elect, can be put out in 128 characters or less. I don't know about you, but I sure wouldn't want a leader who's "too busy" to communicate with his voters and to the country except by tweeting.

President (Elect) Obama held his first press conference on Nov 7th 2008, only 3 days after he won the election. He then held another one on Nov 24th.

President (Elect) George W Bush held his first conference 2 days after he won on Dec 15th (after Gore's concession speech).

President (Elect) Bill Clinton gave his 9 days later.

Each president-elect held press conferences days after winning, announced top cabinet picks, and answered questions from the press and say hello to the American people and to the world properly, formally. President Elect Donald Trump has not bothered to do so yet.
