Description
Cross-post https://github.com/node-red/node-red/issues/1722#issuecomment-405422974 since I suppose this is the right place for it.
I installed Node-Red for the first time yesterday using the quick start instructions in this repo and I am experiencing the same problem.
What are the steps to reproduce?
The Twitter node still has 140 characters as limit.
Update: This is for inbound tweets
What happens?
msg.payload and msg.tweet.text are truncated at 140 chars
What do you expect to happen?
All text should be passed through
Please tell us about your environment:

npm version: 6.1.0
Platform/OS: MacOS 10.13.5 High Sierra
