The balance of power on Twitter just shifted dramatically

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

The tweets that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris posted today announcing victory are now both among the top ten most liked tweets in history. Trump’s most popular tweet today got barely one-third as many likes as Joe’s and Kamala’s tweets. The balance of power on Twitter has shifted dramatically.

According to the folks who track these things, Kamala’s tweet today is the seventh most liked of all time, and Joe’s tweet is the eighth most liked of all time. President Obama has the second and third most liked tweets of all time. Interestingly, Donald Trump doesn’t have any tweets on the top ten list.
