The Hill ^ | 9/14/2020 | ZACK BUDRYK

President Trump for a second day in row aimed criticism at Matt Drudge and The Drudge Report on Monday, claiming all of his supporters had abandoned the pioneering conservative news aggregator.

“Our people have all left Drudge. He is a confused MESS, has no clue what happened,” Trump tweeted Monday. “Down 51%. @DRUDGE They like REVOLVER and others!”

It was unclear what the 51 percent figure referenced, but on Sunday Trump tweeted a blog post claiming traffic to The Drudge Report had declined 40 percent.

Some people suggested this was some power play to pick up a libtard audience which is dumb as we are seeing. The sale theory makes more sense but it still shows what a scumbag he is.

He’s dead to me. Just like the NFL, NBA, MLB and NASCAR.

Deep state blackmail is why Drudge turned. He didn’t sell his site.

“Some people suggested this was some power play to pick up a libtard audience which is dumb as we are seeing.”

Beck tried that in 2016, Jay Leno just recently.

“Deep state blackmail is why Drudge turned.”

Any idea what our enemies have on him?

What do they have on Leno?

IMO, many big names have been EAGER to sell out.

Well.. I am his people and I left Drudge.

I left drudge a few years back, never looked back.

I removed every drudge app from every device, and it was not part of any organized boycott. I just hated what the site had become, and there are so very many excellent alternatives.

Nothing new. Most of us left Drudge years ago.

Its a completely retarded idea. Leno at least was not seen as a conservative figure. OTOH, all the libtards aren’t suddenly going to drop Twitter and all the websites they already have...many of which started out as alternatives to Drudge in the far bigger and more developed Leftwing Internet to give his hasbeen site the traffic it used to have just because he’s turned.

If he really thought this then his mind is starting to go.
