The results of polls on X cannot be used to make claims about the opinion of the general public because the results are likely biased. “The researcher can publicly post the survey [..] This is not a good method because the results are going to be biased” https://discovery.cs.illinois.edu/learn/Polling-Confidence-Intervals-and-Hypothesis-Testing/Polling-and-Sampling/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1816478001884004816

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
