To anyone who fears Trump’s MAGA movement:
Trump used to have 87.4 million followers on Twitter, back when politically he was still operating in the realm of democracy.
The new, more radicalized Trump only has 6.5 million followers on Truth Social.
It would be a lot more worrying, if 87.4 million people had followed him into the realm of fascism. They did not.
A perfect example of "bad statistics". Twitter then and Truth Social now had a base membership orders of magnitude different so the comparison is meaningless, even if it makes us fee better.
@the5thColumnist I believe the comparison is very relevant, because it shows, Trump does not have the leverage, some people think he does.
When he ran in 2016 he had A LOT of control over the narrative. But 2024 will be very different from that. With all those court cases coming, he can scream “fake indictments” to his fewer followers on Truth Social all he wants — it will be the DA’s and the judges who control the narrative much more than it will be him.
I believe it already is.
