The irony': Trump social media guru whines as 'hysterical' influencers turn on president

The irony': Trump social media guru whines as 'hysterical' influencers turn on president describes a social media strategist criticizing online backlash while raising claims of manufactured influence. Alex Bruesewitz, a 29-year-old who works for a political action committee affiliated with the president, appeared on Tucker Carlson’s podcast in late June and also spoke with David Freiheit. Bruesewitz argued there is a coordinated effort to pressure the administration to keep the conflict in Iran going, and said foreign influence could be involved. He also defended the administration’s handling of the release of files related to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, saying criticisms may have been manipulated. He complained about “low-IQ” and “hysterical” takes and said money from special interests and foreign countries has flowed into the internet ecosystem. The article adds that Bruesewitz’s firm, X Strategies, reportedly receives $25,000 a month from Never Surrender, and notes he previously promoted baseless, racist claims about Haitians in Springfield, Ohio, after Trump amplified them in a racist conspiracy.
