Trump
Donald Trump — the 45th and 47th president of the United States.
Coverage of Trump is holding steady : 210 signals on the latest tracked day, up 81% from its three-week baseline of 116, across 12 domains (down from 83 a week ago). That makes it the #18 most-covered of the 337 concerns we track.
Trump is steady by its own history. Its normal rhythm is about 116 signals a day across 12 domains (46 tracked days). A real move would be a day at 145+ signals — 25% above that baseline, the bar our trend read calls accelerating — or a spread into domains beyond its usual 12. That is the move that would push it up the Wire.
What’s changed
7 of the last 7 tracked days ran above the three-week baseline — a sustained move, not a one-day spike.
