LISTEN TO TLR’S LATEST PODCAST:
By Phillip Stucky
A narrow majority of Republican voters want President Donald Trump to hand over control of his Twitter account to members of his communications staff, according to a poll published Wednesday.
Fifty-three percent of right-leaning voters say that Trump tweets “too much,” according to the Morning Consult published Wednesday. Republicans were slightly more approving of Trump’s Twitter behavior than the general population, however, as 69 percent of all registered voters say that the president tweets too much. Only 23 percent of voters said that his tweets were beneficial.
The president acknowledged the pressure to curb his Twitter use in a series of tweets Tuesday, although he appeared to blame the push as a result of the mainstream media.
The FAKE MSM is working so hard trying to get me not to use Social Media. They hate that I can get the honest and unfiltered message out.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 6, 2017
The president appeared to double down on his Twitter usage when White House officials announced that Trump plans to live tweet former FBI Director James Comey Senate hearing Thursday. Trump disbanded the traditional “war room” setting with top aides and advisors in favor his own personal use of his Twitter account.
Morning Consult polled 1,999 registered voters and ran from June 1 through June 2. The poll carried a margin of error of 2 percentage points in either direction.
