Donald Trump has berserk meltdown about Twitter’s trending topics
Twitter’s trending topics list is simply a reflection of what’s being discussed on the social network each day. There are some filters to keep out spam, slurs, and so on. But it’s not as if Twitter employees are picking out things to put on the trending list, or anything like that.
The trouble for Donald Trump is that as he becomes even more unpopular, the discussions taking place on sites like Twitter are becoming even more negative toward him. Accordingly, most (not all) of Twitter’s trending topics are things that Trump doesn’t like.
Now Trump has decided that the trending topics are not only a conspiracy against him, but an “illegal” one:
So disgusting to watch Twitter’s so-called “Trending”, where sooo many trends are about me, and never a good one. They look for anything they can find, make it as bad as possible, and blow it up, trying to make it trend. Really ridiculous, illegal, and, of course, very unfair!

That’s right, this idiot has no idea how anything works. There is no conspiracy. It’s just that the majority of Americans hate him.
