Most voters believe President Donald Trump's tweets are hurting his agenda, a new Fox News poll showed.

According to the survey released Thursday, 71 percent say Trump's tweets hurt his job as president; 17 percent think the tweets are helpful.

The poll found 13 percent approve of Trump's tweeting — down from 16 percent in March, according to Fox News; 46 percent disapprove, while 39 percent take the middle ground and "wish he'd be more cautious."

Among Republicans, 21 percent approve, while 59 percent would like Trump to be more careful with his tweets; 18 percent disapprove.

Majorities across the board say Trump's tweets are hurting his agenda; 87 percent of Democrats, 75 percent of independents, and 53 percent of Republicans, the poll showed.

The poll's margin of error was plus or minus 3 percentage points.

The survey was taken Sunday through Tuesday, before an incendiary tweet sent out Thursday by the president, disparaging "Morning Joe" host Mika Brzezinski for her looks.
