This experiment has been up for a few days, but we wanted to keep an eye on it to see how it would trend, and it finally seems to have leveled off, which is good news for Bill de Blasio.
Last Thursday, de Blasio posted a fundraising video to Twitter, and it promptly earned 44 retweets.
Whether you saw me on @seanhannity or heard me on @TheYoungTurks, whether you watched me confront @realDonaldTrump or challenge @JoeBiden — it's no secret that I tell everyone the exact same thing.

The question: Could a photo of a grilled cheese sandwich earn more retweets than de Blasio’s fundraising video? The answer: Yes, by the thousands.
Bill de Blasio's fundraising tweet has 10 retweets in TEN HOURS.
Let's see if my grilled cheese is more popular than Bill de Blasio! pic.twitter.com/hrlJWQaayk

As you can see, the grilled cheese has racked up 5,800 retweets and more than 8,000 likes.
Retweeted because, let's be real, a grilled cheese has more utility than a lot of politicians.

Certainly more than de Blasio, who has extreme negative utility.

3 days and 44 retweets. Boy I sure hope you win the nomination.

People would rather elect @thebradfordfile’s grilled cheese than you.

I’d vote for @thebradfordfile’s grilled cheese sandwich before voting for @BilldeBlasio any day of the week. pic.twitter.com/KJkiKN1mC4

I'm not a liberal, but even if I was, I'd never support someone who shows such disregard for the men in blue. #BlueLivesMatter

You got a better chance of getting pregnant than getting the nomination.

This is coming from the worst mayor in America and the worst mayor that New York City has ever had, but sure.

I’ll give you ten dollars for a copy of an outside audit of ThriveNYC.

This is so embarrassing
— Angelica Lopez ❌ (@angelical626) August 23, 2019
We’re not sure if de Blasio’s capable of feeling embarrassment, or he would have dropped out right after Swalwell wised up.
