Why it spread

It spread because the post explains itself and comes from a big source, reaching 3,531 views with 19 likes, 6 reposts and 5 saves.

What worked

  • The headline asks a direct question and the text answers it immediately with the 55 versus 83 comparison.
  • The chart is a stacked bar that shows Trump appointed fewer judges than other presidents by midterms, so the takeaway is clear without extra reading.
  • It is branded, carries a source line, and comes from a top-quarter source, which lends trust and reach.

What to borrow

Use a question headline that our own data answers in one line, pair it with a self-explanatory stacked bar, and keep our brand and source line visible.

Careful

Do not over-read the low engagement: only 19 likes, 6 reposts, 0 quotes and 5 saves against 3,531 views, and the quote rate sits in the bottom quarter, so reach here came more from the source than from conversation.
