At least half of President Biden’s 22.2 million Twitter followers are bogus, a new audit revealed.
The audit, which was done for the social media giant by software firm SparkToro, found that 49.3% of the president’s followers are “fake followers,” according to Newsweek.
SparkToro has defined “fake followers” as “accounts that are unreachable and will not see the account’s tweets (either because they’re spam, bots, propaganda, etc. or because they’re no longer active on Twitter).”
Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who is currently attempting to buy Twitter, has expressed concern over the growing number of fake accounts and proposed a potential crackdown on the sham accounts.
Musk said he believes that 20% of all Twitter accounts are fake and vowed to not go through with his $44M purchase of the social media giant until the issue is resolved.
“My offer was based on Twitter’s SEC filings being accurate,” Musk said.
“Yesterday, Twitter’s CEO publicly refused to show proof of <5%. This deal cannot move forward until he does.” The audit, which was done for the social media giant by software firm SparkToro, found that 49.3% of the president's followers are "fake followers."

Was it Trump who put out a commercial that showed about 2 minutes of video showing biden sniffing women young and old. It wasn’t shown for long but was hilarious and disturbing..
fake news. he got 80 million votes. so obviously twitter is sprressing the number of followers he would have....
Elon, we are not getting tired of your winning. Not even slightly tired.
So, about the same percentage as his fake votes?
But they can still vote so are they really fake???
I just wonder what Federal charge might be forthcoming from the “justus Department” for fake FEC filings.
I expect half of Twitter is bots. Cheating advertising companies, shareholders and creditors. Elon has them by the curlies.
The other half are in the cemetery getting ready to vote in November.
The other half are retards.
That makes sense given that he had a similar percentage of fake voters.
No one files accurate stuff.
“Betcha’ Musk learns of far more than 5% fake accounts. So many fakes that he’ll see Twitter is not worth a crap, not to mention the billions he offered. No sale,
But, when # of fakes becomes widely known, no one will care. Demise of twitter.”
Hopefully, that will happen and People like Musk will look at the fake news mags, and the B$ of ABCNNBCBS and their fake news and probably fake viewers.
How many adult and living viewers does CNN have?
Thanks. We/I/most of us were not aware of this reality:
“Once you’re suspended, you have no ability to delete your account, so you forever show up in the numbers they promote to advertisers.”

I’d be willing to bet that over half of B. Hussein’s 80 mil followers are fake.
