The increasing frequency of president donald trump’s social communications: Is there a limit?
Main Article Content
Abstract
This brief article offers a regression formula which accurately predicts Trump’s messaging rate as president (R=.96, p<.001). Rate is a quadratic function of months in office, with Republican approval rating entering the formula with a negative weight. The function has no mathematical limit, but real-life constraints associated with time available for messaging are discussed and exemplified, and a maximum messaging rate (150 messages daily, in an ongoing pattern) is suggested.
