Trump has been prolific on Twitter throughout his campaign and into his time in office, using the platform to announce new policies and respond to reports about his administration.

The documents featuring the figures were posted by the Senate Judiciary Committee on Friday.

Twitter shared the numbers as lawmakers press tech companies for information on how Russia used social media platforms to influence the 2016 presidential election.

Twitter announced last year that it had identified 201 accounts linked to Russia's election interference.

Facebook and Google also submitted responses to the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday.

Facebook said that it had found 129 events created by pages linked to Russian “troll farms” that spread information intended to influence the election.
