    Even if it wasn't bots, the question is being asked after the assassination of a right-wing hate-monger. You're unlikely to get an accurate figure because of the context.

    I’m surprised/not surprised the MAGA faithful are outraged that Trump skipped out on Kirk’s memorial service.

    WTF did they expect? Trump sitting there bawling about the death of a person he thought of “like a son”? Geez, if it was Uday or Qusay he would’ve done the same thing. Oh wait — no he wouldn’t, because there wouldn’t be a memorial service.

    Drumpf was asked on Friday how he was holding up after the Charlie Kirk assassination. He immediately started talking about the White House ballroom.

    Trump has people working round the clock for him who will continue to stoke the flames. He can rest easy.

    Trump says he will sue New York Times for $15bn

    US President Donald Trump has said he will sue the New York Times for $15bn (£11bn) over what the US president calls defamation and libel.

    "The New York Times has been allowed to freely lie, smear, and defame me for far too long, and that stops, NOW!" Trump posted on his social media platform, Truth Social, on Monday.

    He singled out the Times' endorsement of Kamala Harris in the last presidential election in 2024, saying it had become a "mouthpiece for the Radical Left Democrat Party".

    I saw something on this - he "successfully" sued CBS and ABC because they are part of larger conglomerates that need government approval to do other stuff, so they settled the lawsuits by paying (bribing) Trump. The New York Times isn't a subset of some larger company that needs government approval, and the lawsuit has no merit, so it will obviously fail (*), just as the lawsuits against CBS and ABC would have failed (*) if they had gone to trial.

    (*) barring judicial shenanigans

    So the wheel stopped on $15bn this time.

    *He sees something upsetting*
    *He spins the wheel of random amounts*

    The wheel tells him how much to sue for.

    The number is random. The point is that this gave him excuse to say “Radical Left Democratic Party” for the 10 millionth time (and probably third time today) which keeps the phrase in the news cycle and which is why his base, along with most unengaged voters, think that violent leftist extremists voted for Biden and Harris in the last two elections.

    Joe Biden, Kamela Harris, Barack Obama, etc. should sue Fox, Newsmax, Breitbart, Daily Caller etc., using similar language just to show how extremely embarrassing that document is.

    Damn shame those people have a sens3 of dignity and a respect for the rule of law.

    I see your #18 and raise you #19 :eek:

    19. President Trump is a citizen of the United States, a resident of the State
    of Florida, the 45th President of the United States of America, and, having handily
    won the 2024 Presidential Election despite Defendants’ best efforts to the contrary,
    is the 47th President of the United States. In addition to his unprecedented political
    success, President Trump is universally known for his decades of remarkable
    business achievements, particularly at the helm of the world-renowned Trump
    Organization, with its worldwide portfolio of luxury real estate holdings. Having
    long established himself as a global celebrity, he then revolutionized television as
    the star of “The Apprentice.” President Trump continues to redefine what is possible
    in business and media, including with his founding, and powerful use, of the immensely successful social media platform, Truth Social.

    Amazingly successful & powerful Tooth Sential numbers:

    (AI)
    As of early 2025, Truth Social is estimated to have around 6.3 million active monthly users. The user base is significantly smaller than those of mainstream social media platforms and is primarily composed of conservative, Republican-leaning individuals.

    User demographics
    Research from 2024 and early 2025 shows the following about Truth Social's user demographics:

    Gender: The user base is male-dominated, with over 61% of users identifying as men.

    Age: Users skew older than on many other social platforms.
    55 to 64: The platform's largest age group.

    Under 35: Very few users are in the 18–34 age range, in contrast to competitors like X, formerly Twitter.

    Political affiliation: Overwhelmingly Republican or Republican-leaning. A Pew Research Center fact sheet from September 2024 found that 88% of regular news consumers on the platform identify as Republicans or lean Republican.

    Race/ethnicity: As of March 2024, 77% of users were White, with 16% Hispanic and just 1% Black

    First thing I noted was that they used the AP results map rather than NYT own map.

    3. "There was a time, long ago, [in a galaxy far, far away]..." At least, that's how I read it. :D
