Majority of Americans Say Trump Should be Charged for January 6: Poll (msn.com)<br><br><br>A new poll from the University of New Hampshire finds that most Americans believe that Trump should be charged for his role in the January 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol. <br><br>According to the UNH poll, 59% of Americans say that Trump should be charged for his involvement in the January 6 insurrection. Conversely, 31% don't believe he should be charged.

In December, Twitter was flooded with damaging information about Trump following the release of internal Twitter documents. <br><br>Dubbed the "Twitter Files," the information was released by Elon Musk and Twitter CEO Yoel Roth. According to the information, Trump's Twitter was suspended after pressure from the Biden administration and Twitter workers. <br><br>Trump has been vocal about his criticism of social media platforms.
