Donald Trump may be the leader of the free world, but that’s never stopped him indulging his love for Twitter.

It’s a passion that has lead to quite a bit of criticism – with detractors claiming that the President’s love of verbal attacks online aren’t the hallmark of a strong head of state who is capable of steering the most powerful country on Earth.

Take today, for example, when he hit out at Snoop Dogg for a video in which the rap icon appeared to ‘shoot’ a model of The Donald.

And now pollsters YouGov are ranking the popularity of his tweets among the U.S. public on a daily basis.

At the end of every day, a representative sample of American adults are shown the tweets sent in the past 24 hours by President Trump and asked to rate them on a scale of ‘Great’, ‘Good’, ‘OK’, ‘Bad’ and ‘Terrible’, with scores ranging from -200 to +200.

None of the President’s tweets have scored anywhere near the top bracket, with a highest recorded score of 56 so far.

These are the Donald Trump’s most popular tweets among the range of Republican, Democrat and independent voters.

1. The Donald’s most popular tweet, with a score of 56, was a pledge to fight human trafficking – an issue that all American political parties can agree on.

2. It was closely followed by this jovial greeting to Justin Trudeau – the Prime Minister of Canada, and the internet’s favourite political heartthrob, which received 54.

3. A pledge of support for America’s police is the third most popular tweet, clocking up 51 points.

4. A shout-out to the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African History and Culture got a popularity score of 42.

5. Justin Trudeau strikes again – this tweet about a meeting with Canada’s PM is The Donald’s fifth most popular among Americans.

At the opposite end of the spectrum, a tweet criticising businessman mark Cuban is the President’s least popular, receiving a dismal score of -81.

In short, it seems that there’s a decent argument for Donald to adopt the frequent, innocuous and Presidential bulletins that were regularly seen during the previous administration.

We doubt that he will, but it’s food for Presidential thought.
