As the seven impeachment managers delivered their opening arguments in the Senate trial Wednesday, President Donald Trump set a new record for the highest number of presidential tweets within a 24-hour period.
The commander-in-chief, who had been overseas in Switzerland attending an economic summit, let loose a record-breaking 142 tweets and replies within one day — surpassing his previous record of 123 Twitter posts within the same period.
Half the world away from the U.S., in Davos, Switzerland, just 50 seconds after the clock struck midnight, the president erupted. Trump began to post on the social media platform feverishly. One tweet and reply after another. Blasting House Democrats, impeachment managers and any individual or cause that happened upon.

Most of his social media platform shares to his fan-base of around 71 million Twitter followers were retweets – Trump retweeted messages, videos and images that Republican lawmakers and other supporters released into the media.
