Anti-Trump Channel Tops YouTube Charts
Newsweek ^ | March 12, 2025 | Ewan Palmer

Posted on 03/12/2025 11:45:56 AM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

MeidasTouch, a progressive media network that is highly critical of President Donald Trump, has been named YouTube's most popular news and politics channel over the past three days, just ahead of Fox News.

On Sunday, MeidasTouch accumulated more than 9.6 million views and 543,000 likes on its channel. These figures increased to more than 11.6 million views and 672,000 likes on Monday.

On Tuesday, MeidasTouch uploaded multiple videos with titles such as "Fox News COLLAPSES ON AIR as Trump CRASHES ECONOMY" and "Trump holds DISASTER PRESSER with Musk as MARKETS CRASH."

MeidasTouch co-founder Brett Meiselas told Newsweek in February: "People are tired of the lies, the hate, and the corruption. They want truth, empathy, and real fighters who won't back down. We don't mince words. We don't bend the knee. I think that's why so many have gravitated to MeidasTouch, especially in these past few weeks.

"Trump's reelection made our mission more important than ever. While others cave, settle lawsuits, or soften coverage, we double down. We're clear-eyed, fearless, and won't be silenced—no matter the consequences."

There’s no dissent allowed on these channels.

Any post remotely questioning the narrative and it’s immediately removed by the Youtube Censors.

For example, every day these channels put out the same garbage on How Trump voters are regretting their votes. But just comment saying “No we don’t, we are happy” and the post will be instantly removed.

This results in Liberals living in an echo chamber and they are going to be sorely surprised when things don’t turn out the way they expect.

That’s exactly right! If YT had fair, unbiased algorithms, this channel wouldn’t exist.

Was this the guy that lost a ton on the election betting markets.

Have watched his election night “reporting”.

Bots and fake accounts. It's a scam, just like their "voters" who voted for Biden in 2020.

Made up fake numbers from fake and bot accounts.

I have to give you credit for taking one for the team.  I've seen some of the outlandish headlines and thumbnails from this moron that occasionally pop up on my YT feed, but I'll never give him the satisfaction of even a single hit.

Same goes for another YT dolt whose initials I believe are BTC.  I read somewhere that he was an MSNBC "contributor", which figures.

Despite trying to follow all their stupid rules and being “nice” etc, I think about half of my comments are disappeared because they are non-supportive of the content creators statements.

9 million out of 70 million who voted for Harris is a pretty small percentage.
