A USA Today/Suffolk University poll reports that registered voters, by a 2-1 margin, want President Trump to cut down on his tweeting. Fifty-nine percent of the 1,000 surveyed say Trump "should stop tweeting so much,” and 28 percent agree with the statement "his tweets are a good way to communicate directly with Americans."

An NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll taken just before Trump took office on Jan. 17 showed 69 percent of those polled agreeing with the statement that "in an instant, messages can have unintended major implications without careful review.” Just 26 percent said the tweeting "allows a president to directly communicate to people immediately."
