Thanks in your consideration to Trump’s bizarre new tic
SHARE

Survey Says is a weekly sequence rounding up an important polling traits or knowledge factors you want to find out about, plus a vibe verify on a pattern that’s driving politics.

Donald Trump has a brand new verbal tic. He throws it out indiscriminately on-line, whether or not he’s threatening unhoused individuals or whining about Bruce Springsteen or saying U.S. assaults on Iran’s nuclear websites.

“Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

Trump has posted some model of this onto his Reality Social account 91 instances since profitable final 12 months’s presidential election. However the humorous factor is, previous to the election, he virtually by no means used the phrase on-line: simply 5 instances throughout each his Reality Social and X accounts, in additional than 16 years of on-line life.


President Donald Trump seems to be at his telephone throughout a gathering associated to the COVID-19 pandemic in June 2020.

Day by day Kos reviewed Roll Name’s database of all of Trump’s posts to Reality Social and X, previously often known as Twitter, the place he started posting on Could 4, 2009. Our depend consists of slight variants on the phrase (like “Thank you for your attention to this problem”) and spelling errors, corresponding to when Trump threatened Apple with tariffs in Could however wrote, “Thank your for your attention to this matter!” And it excludes his deleted posts in addition to any time he has reposted his personal thank-you, which has occurred at the very least twice. 

Trump’s first documented use of the phrase on his social media accounts got here in August 2019, when he—gasp—introduced increased tariffs on China throughout his first time period. Between then and the election, he whipped out the thank-you simply 4 extra instances, relating to matters as disparate as a federal abortion ban and his 2020 election denialism/soccer.

He then deployed the phrase three days after the 2024 election, in an try and regular the inventory value of Reality Social, which had bounced round following his win.

Nonetheless, it wasn’t till after he reassumed the White Home that his thank-yous exploded. Three posts in February turned 5 in each March and April, turned 15 in Could. He hit his month-to-month file in July, at 26 makes use of. However with 17 in August already, he’s on monitor to eclipse that.

One of many extra curious instances he used it was when he addressed a Wall Road Journal report about his birthday be aware to accused intercourse trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. 

However 5 days earlier, he was chastising individuals for … listening to the scandal … whereas additionally thanking them for paying consideration.

“One year ago our Country was DEAD, now it’s the ‘HOTTEST’ Country anywhere in the World. Let’s keep it that way, and not waste Time and Energy on Jeffrey Epstein, somebody that nobody cares about,” he wrote. “Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

Possibly he’s simply making an attempt to make his posts sound extra like official press releases. Maybe somebody in his workplace persuaded him to be a tiny bit extra gracious, to seem much less just like the bigoted, semi-sentient grandpa he’s. Or perhaps it had one thing to do with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

On Feb. 28, Trump and Vice President JD Vance met with Zelenskyy within the Oval Workplace to ostensibly focus on additional navy support to the embattled nation. However the true function of the assembly shortly turned clear: Trump thought Zelenskyy was ungrateful and wished to humiliate him. Notably, Vance demanded to know if Zelenskyy had ever “said thank you once” to Trump. (Zelenskyy had thanked the U.S. many instances for its help.)

Within the week earlier than that ambush, Trump issued three “Thank you for your attention to this matter!” posts, every about totally different matters—however that’s greater than he had despatched out in anybody month previous to that. 

Within the month after the ambush, Trump posted 5 extra thank-yous. And from there, his use of the phrase snowballed. It’s attainable that Zelenskky’s pushback throughout the ambush made “thank you” stick in his head. A few of his posts afterward wield the phrase virtually sarcastically.

Or perhaps—most likely—that’s simply greedy at straws.

No matter it’s, Trump has given his critics a brand new motto to mock him with.

Any updates?

Talking of Republicans making an attempt to gerrymander congressional maps, a brand new ballot from YouGov finds that solely 30% of People help Texas redrawing its map to additional profit Republicans. Assist for Texas Democrats who left the state to stall the redraw is barely underwater, with 36 approving of them leaving and 40% disapproving. But in addition underwater is state Lawyer Normal Ken Paxton’s menace to expel the Democrats from the state Home. Thirty-six p.c approve, whereas 44% disapprove.

Convicted intercourse trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to a cushier jail after she met with Trump’s Justice Division, in what seems to be a quid professional quo for her silence. And it seems the general public ain’t a fan of that. Simply 14% of People say she ought to’ve been moved to a minimum-security jail, in response to YouGov. On the similar time, solely about one-third of People suppose Trump ordered the transfer, although the plurality (48%) aren’t certain whom they suppose ordered it.

Vibe verify

Per a recent YouGov ballot, eggs come out as essentially the most beloved meals, with 51% of People saying they “love” them. Probably the most reviled is liver, with 40% saying they “hate” it. 

Probably the most polarizing, although, is sushi, in response to the Day by day Kos Meals Polarization Index.™️(The methodology for this may be discovered within the chart’s footnote.) Sushi evokes the strongest however most balanced reactions from People, with 23% loving the meals and 27% hating it.

What meals do you hate, love, or can’t perceive how others love?
