Still Report #1097 Trump Tromps Clinton in Social Media Support
YouTube ^ | 8-6-16 | Bill Still

Good afternoon, I’m still reporting on fake polls. Hats off to Addison Riddleberger columns for assembling this social media data.

The 2016 elections will be the elections social scientists will look back on as the turning point year – the year where an analysis of social media will prove more predictive than paid polling.

Assuming that is a correct prediction, what does that mean for the future of the Trump-Clinton presidential race. All of these stats are as of Aug. 4th, 2016.

Facebook live stream posts (latest):
Trump: 135,000 likes, 18,167 shares, 1,500,000 views = 1,653,167 total = 83.0%
Clinton: 11,000 likes, 0 shares, 321,000 views = 332,000 total = 17.0%
*note: almost half of Clinton FB posts, the top comments are from Trump supporters. However, top comments on Trump’s page are hardcore Trump supporters only.


Twitter :
Trump: 10.6 million followers = 56.7%
Clinton: 8.1 million followers = 43.3%

Youtube Live Stream (averages):
Trump: 30,000 live viewers per stream = 98.4%
Clinton: 500 live viewers per stream = 1.6%

Instagram:
Trump: 2.2 million followers = 55.0%
Clinton: 1.8 million followers = 45.0%

Reddit subscribers:
Trump: 197,696 = 71.3%
Clinton: 24,429 = 8.8%
Hillary for Prison: 55,228 = 19.9%
Bottom line: more than twice as many Reddit users think Clinton should be in jail as should become the next President of the United States.
I’m still reporting from Washington. Good day.

Social Media is HUGH and SERIES!!!

You post just five tweets a day to the right thread and it can get retweeted for a long time!!

We put the news we get here that the MASSES dont hear and that’s where they get to see it.

MSM will be dead in 20 years.

Traditional politics, like television broadcast networks, do no know how to interpret the social media and include it in terms of ‘ratings’.

The old models are no longer accurate.

Even polster-to-voter polling can be inaccurate. Just ask President Kerry and President Romney.

Add to that Trump-the-non-politician, and they might as well throw up their hands, because it is a whole new ballgame.

Analysts will be analysing the 2016 presidential primaries and election for decades.

And I’m guessing the mainstream media narrative WOULD have been the social media demos would skew younger, and in theory, more Dem.

It shows there is an enthusiasm gap in a BIG way for sure.

Notice Trump is not retweeting anything anymore, other than Drudge. His retweets got him in lots of trouble during the primaries.

“Notice Trump is not retweeting anything anymore, other than Drudge. His retweets got him in lots of trouble during the primaries.”

Your CONCERN is duly noted, n00b.

The more it can get advertised on social media the better.

This to me relates to turnout and motivation factors.
Landslide.
