The recent storming of the US Capitol seems to be hitting President Donald Trump not only politically, but financially as well. CNN reports a growing number of businesses suddenly want very little to do with Trump after he incited a mob of his supporters to attack the Capitol. Twitter and Facebook banned Trump indefinitely, and Stripe is no longer processing credit card payments for his campaign. Shopify stopped operating online stores for the Trump Organization and the campaign and the PGA is pulling a major golf tournament from a Trump resort. It's also unclear which, if any, banks will want to loan money to the Trump Organization.
As President Donald Trump crosses the country in a last-minute frenzy of campaign stumping, he's given short shrift to down-ballot Republican senators. Speaking in Arizona on Wednesday, CNN reports Trump offered a mortifyingly dismissive introduction to the state's vulnerable GOP senator, Martha McSally. Martha, just come up fast. Fast. Fast. Come on. Quick. You got one minute! One minute, Martha! They don't want to hear this, Martha. Come on. Let's go. Quick, quick, quick. Come on. Let's go. US President Donald J. Trump Polls have shown McSally facing a tough reelection battle against her Democratic challenger, former astronaut Mark Kelly. And as they have in other tighter-than-expected Senate races, Trump's divisive behavior has been blamed for dragging down McSally's prospects. While she is still courting Trump supporters, she refused to say whether she was proud of the president during a recent Senate debate with Kelly.
Senator Mitt Romney of Utah said on Wednesday that he did not cast a ballot for Trump. He was sharing a bit about his 2020 presidential election choice, according to Business Insider. Romney was a leading GOP presidential candidate in 2008 and served as the party's standard bearer in 2012. Romney was the only Rep. senator who voted to convict Trump in his impeachment trial in 2020. He has shown that loyalty to your party does not mean turning a blind eye to wrongdoing within your party.
Poll after poll suggests that President Donald Trump is a clear underdog against former Vice President Joe Biden. As his popularity with the American people wanes, the President has retreated deeper and deeper into the conservative media world. CNN reports Trump has given 10 times as many interviews to Fox News as he has to any outlet since he became president. In print news, Trump has given eight interviews to the Wall Street Journal, eight to the Washington Post, Reuters, and the New York Times, and two to the AP. In broadcast media, he's given nine interviews to NBC/CNBC, and seven to ABC and CBS, respectively. On all Fox platforms, however, the president has given 115 interviews since taking the oath of office.
Engagement on Facebook posts from misleading websites has spiked by 242 percent. These numbers come from 3Q of 2016 to 3Q of 2020, according to Business Insider. 10 outlets, known as "False Content Producers" or "Manipulators," are responsible for 62% of interactions. Facebook in the past has been slammed for inadequately handling the spread of misinformation. Facebook's attempts to moderate misinformation come into focus ahead of the US presidential election. Stopping the spread of misinformation is crucial to the integrity of daily life.
