Apparently, Cruz and Hillary would have been well-served by a similar, dangerous, use of Twitter, because something powerfully positive comes out through its use.
At least you have company with MSNBC and CNN liberals with your stance.
Trump Support Plunges In Latest IBD/TIPP Poll
JOHN MERLINE4/03/2017
Just 34% of the public approve of the job President Trump is doing, as his support among Republicans and independents tumbles, according to the April IBD/TIPP poll. Fifty six percent disapprove of the job he’s doing. Approval ratings for a president haven’t been this low since President Bush’s last months in office.
Last month, 40% of independents approved of the job Trump is doing; just 29% approve today. Among Republicans, Trump’s job approval is 74%, which represents a 14-point decline from last month.
The latest IBD/TIPP poll was taken from March 24-30, and includes responses from 904 people across the country, giving it a margin of error of +/-3.3 percentage points. The national sample of adults had 34% Democrats, 30% Republicans and 36% Independents.
Across the board, the poll has bad news for Trump.
He lost significant support among his strongest backers: white men (which dropped from 58% in March to 49% today), and rural America, which went from 56% to 41% today.
Gallup
Trump’s current 36% is two percentage points below Barack Obama’s low point of 38%, recorded in 2011 and 2014. Trump has also edged below Bill Clinton’s all-time low of 37%, recorded in the summer of 1993, his first year in office, as well as Gerald Ford’s 37% low point in January and March 1975. John F. Kennedy’s lowest approval rating was 56%; Dwight Eisenhower’s was 48%
But
Presidential job approval ratings are fluid, and all presidents have seen both upward and downward swings in their ratings at various points in their administrations — a historical precedent indicating Trump’s approval could drop further or recover in the weeks and months ahead. An encouraging sign for Trump, perhaps, is that all presidents whose ratings fell below 36% — with the exception of Nixon — saw their ratings improve thereafter. Clinton provides a particularly relevant example. His approval rating dropped to 37% in June 1993 but recovered to 56% by September of that year.

The purpose of my criticisms is to get him to stop these impulsive tweets and start courting the public with the image of gravitas that his approval numbers reveal he so desperately needs. I advise him to do this not to rebuke him but to make him more powerful so that those policies of his of which I approve might succeed.
Mr. Trump has stated several times that as soon as they start reporting what he says honestly, he will be able to scale down his use of Twitter, but right now it’s the only way he has of getting his message out.
