Trump’s MAGA priming system seems to have backfired for the first time.

President Donald Trump’s weekend post defending Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files has triggered an unprecedented backlash, marking the first time the Republican has been “ratioed” on his own social media platform, Truth Social.

The term “ratioed” refers to when a social media post receives more replies than likes or shares, often signaling more disagreement or criticism than support.

“We’re on one Team, MAGA, and I don’t like what’s happening,” the president wrote. “Let’s not waste Time and Energy on Jeffrey Epstein, somebody that nobody cares about.”

Unlike mainstream social media platforms, Truth Social was designed as a haven for Trump and his supporters, where engagement overwhelmingly leans positive.

Other posts in [TruthSocial] occasionally drew large reply volumes, but in every case until now, likes or re-truths outnumbered them. This post represents the first—and so far only—time Trump was publicly rebuked by more of his own followers than supported him.
