Poll shows American voters overwhelmingly think Trump should shut down his Twitter account
In the poll, 59% of respondents said Trump should shut down his personal Twitter account now that he's been elected to the highest office in the US.
"Voters tell President-elect Donald Trump, 'You've got the job. Now be a leader not a tweeter,'" Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll, said in a press release. "And we're watching to make sure you put the country, not the Trump brand, first."
Trump has been surprisingly candid on the social-media platform, throughout both his campaign and the post-election period.
He unleashed an early-morning tweetstorm on Tuesday, for instance, blasting The New York Times for covering him "inaccurately" and "with a nasty tone." Trump then said he was canceling a planned meeting with the Times, but later reversed course after the story picked up media attention.
Quinnipiac's poll also showed that despite Americans' concerns about Trump - 52% say he is not honest, 57% say he is not level-headed - 59% of voters are optimistic about a Trump presidency.
