"Botched"
Many have commented on how the rollout was not well-executed. Servers were overwhelmed. I seem to remember something like that happening during the Obama administration. What was it now...
Anyhow among the critics is Biden.
And someone responded, "Yeah, it works because nobody clicks on it."

Yup. All these media outlets criticizing the rollout because the servers were overwhelmed.
Two points:
- A LOT of people were interested.
- There's no such thing as bad publicity. He's probably getting more press now than he would have had things gone smoothly. Come to think of it, this is probably a Musk/DeSantis/Evil Professor plot for attention. 3-D chess, man!

For Vox and Politico, it WAS disastrous. One million people and no corporate media massaging the message. DeSantis and voters. That was it. That is devastating to the power of the media outlets.

Some of the reactions are quite odd. It does seem like Trump has lost Fox.

Yeah, but let’s not ignore the fact that Lame Donald’s response was incoherent….

It sounds a bit like the complaints about all those people abandoning Disney/New York/etc. because it's over-crowded. As with Obama, the servers were over-whelmed because so many people are interested.

That's sort of what I meant. If the rollout were a yawn-inducing event, this would not have happened.
People are interested, and with the "botched" hashtag getting traction, he's going to have even more eyes. I'm not sure if this qualifies as a Streisand effect (probably not), or a "no such thing..."

@George-K the live numbers were actually 900K, anyway. Saw that myself, though I couldn’t listen live.
