Nearly 60 percent of Americans are optimistic about the next 4 years under President-elect Donald Trump, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday.
The results, according to the poll:
- 59 percent say they are optimistic about the next 4 years under Trump.
- 17 percent think Trump will be a great president
- 32 percent think Trump will be a good president.
- 43 percent think Trump will be "not so good" or bad.
That same majority of American voters — 59 percent — also urge their new president to shut down his personal Twitter account, the survey found.
"Voters tell President-elect Donald Trump, 'You've got the job. Now be a leader not a tweeter,'" said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
Also, while 52 percent said they believe Trump's policies will be good for the nation's economy, just 40 percent said they believe his polices will improve their personal finances, according to the survey.
Conversely, just 23 percent think Trump's policies will hurt them personally while 31 percent think his polices will negatively impact the country, according to the poll.
From Nov. 17 to 20, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,071 voters nationwide with a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points.
