Donald Trump's unconventional presidency has enthralled social media users, who are obsessed with following his every move. But the two most captivating topics on social media since President Trump took office were Barron Trump's right to privacy and the temporary travel ban on people from certain Muslim-majority countries.
That's according to SocialFlow, a publishing optimization platform used by more than 300 major brands. According to their algorithm, which analyzed content for the most shared, commented and clicked stories about Trump since his inauguration January 20, stories about the youngest Trump son and the ban were the most popular on social media.
Despite the tension across the political spectrum, social users seemed to rally around the idea that children shouldn't be targets of political fights, said Frank Speiser, co-founder of Social Flow. That chatter lit up the Internet.
