Bandwagon Effect 1/5
No claims that 'everyone agrees' or broad consensus invoked; standalone insult.
Rapid Behavior Shifts 3/5
Sudden replication of the insult in dozens of replies/quotes post-Obama's viral tweet on Pretti shooting creates quick anti-Obama surge, hinting at amplified momentum.

Cherry-Picked Data 1/5

Context Omission 5/5
Omits any examples, dates, or evidence for 'most racist and divisive' claims, leaving core assertions unsubstantiated.
