And it would maybe be Gabriella, Justin, your favourite, who's our undecided voter, undercover voter.
Those are my fictional characters on social media.
She's kind of seeing a little bit of the rage bait stuff.
But I'd actually say that on the whole, her feed isn't so much about the war now, certainly than it was several weeks ago.
And the main concern that's popping up is around the economy and actually everything is expensive.
It's worth saying on that criticism point that Justin was just making, and on the deleting this AI-generated image of Donald Trump as Jesus, it is very rare for Donald Trump to delete stuff, particularly rage-baity type stuff.
It's really unusual, and I think that probably is reflective of the criticism he's experienced across the political spectrum.
Yeah, exactly.
Not just from people who don't like him, which is what he usually gets.
Fascinating question, especially as there's a BBC investigation online today showing the spikes in various trading just before different announcements about the Iran war.
from Donald Trump then caused a major move in the price of oil or sent the stock market up or down.
It seemed as though people knew a few minutes in advance, a crucial few minutes in advance what was going to happen.
Or certainly they made a lot of very astute bets immediately before an announcement.
So that's one more instance in which people could look at that and say, here is a way that people are either doing insider trading or some form of corruption, making money out of the Trump administration.
Will there be some kind of backlash and the administration suffer?
To be honest, I doubt it.
I think people expect this of the Trump administration.
It's pretty naked the way in which the president and his family are doing deals for the Trump organization around about the same time as
diplomatic deals are being done.
It's absolutely blatant the way the president is fundraising for various of the things he wants to build around Washington and that there seems to be surplus funds.
