4. I saw it trending yesterday. Gosh, 2nd Best Words, maybe that's how trending algorithms work

Reports come in that Epstein died, every "Clinton conspiracy" addict cuts them up into lines and snorts them up, then goes on Twitter to hashtag their high. Twitter sees the activity and lists it as Trending. But that was yesterday, so yeah it has more tweets but there aren't as many fresh ones for it to count as Trending (especially if they don't count users who fit a bot profile).

Meanwhile, people who are fed up with CBC junkies turned the tables and are making a list of the dead racking up under Sniff Master Don. So that's trending.

Or do you think algorithms have something to do with Clinton's VP? That line of reasoning seems about your speed, 2nd Best.
