@ZellaQuixote Answer: an IFTTT botnet is spamming "#iHeartAwards #Thotiana #BestRemix" to the tune of 145810 tweets from 1030 automated accounts since social media voting opened on January 8th. No other entry appears be experiencing automated voting on anything approaching this scale.

Trump is not running against any of the women he attacked in his speech but he is elevating them to victim status. AOC is viewed “very unfavorably” by 74 percent of voters who supported Trump in 2016, while Omar is at 65 percent and Tlaib is at 58 percent. d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.net/cumulus_upload…
This is the "Strawman", "an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent's real argument." Trump has added insult of race, religion, national origin, age and... sex. He has summoned the cucks. #Cucknation
AOC and these women are better known to Republicans than Democrats due to an intense campaign of derision and belittling by right wing media outlets... simply because they are not old white males but young women of color of ethnic origin. An entire journey into #colorism
