  • In June 2020, social media users started to share screenshots supposedly showing how U.S. President Donald Trump was the top result under the People section when searching for the term racist on Twitter: This is a genuine screenshot of Twitter's search results for the term racist. When we searched for racist on Twitter and switched to the People tab, Trump's account also appeared as the top result. A spokesperson for Twitter told us that, If an account is mentioned often alongside certain terms, they can become algorithmically surfaced together as a recommendation. In other words, Trump's account has been mentioned alongside the word racist so often (either by critics calling the president racist or by defenders saying he is not racist), that Trump's account rose to the top of the search results.
