Trump's Flood-the-Zone Social Strategy May Just Win Over His Base During Shutdown
The White House has launched a social media strategy involving memes and fake videos to try to boost support among President Trump's base during the government shutdown. The strategy is part of an effort to counter the opposition party's claims that the president is 'losing' online.
The White House has deployed an aggressive social media strategy to counter the growing public dissatisfaction with the ongoing government shutdown, employing memes and fake videos to engage its base and boost President Trump's popularity amidst a polarized debate over funding for border wall construction and other issues. The campaign seeks to bolster support among Trump's most ardent fans while minimizing criticism from opposing parties. However, experts question whether this strategy will be enough to sway undecided voters or halt the shutdown. As the standoff enters its fourth week, it remains uncertain whether the White House's tactics can shift public opinion in favor of a government reopening.
