It's not just you, Trump really is tweeting a lot more in 2019 and that's a bad sign

If it feels like President Donald Trump has been hurling more invective into the Hellscape echo chamber that is Twitter than before, it's because he has, according to a CNN reporter who tracks such things. 

Daniel Dale, who has risen to prominence by using his Twitter feed to fact-check Trump (a Sisyphean task if ever there was one), reports that Trump is averaging 83 tweets a week (around 12 a day) right now, up from 58 tweets a week in 2018 and nearly double the 44 tweets a week he was sending in 2017.
