"I find it interesting how often the top Google results for basic questions are wrong.
For example, I googled "tire grip physics" (in an incognito window) to get an explanation of why wider tires give you better grip and the top 6 explanations are wrong or at least misleading."
I wonder if it sorts by popularity ahead of relevance (maybe after meeting some minimum threshold for relevance). In another post I've commented about the surprising high quality of the results.
@realdonaldtrump has huge reach on Twitter, as well as a distinctive style, so maybe there is no one who posts in a similar style (TBH I'd expect most to be parody accounts) who has achieved sufficient popularity to compete.
They're also generally funny and original! I'd take these ahead of a curated list of "20 funniest tweets about programming languages" [0] or, say, Reddit r/ProgrammerHumor all time top posts, so that's something that's difficult to achieve programmatically.
[0] OK, I didn't look for a source of these, because Google has the same inadequacies with recommending funny content. If anyone would like to recommend one, I'll read it to give a fair comparison.
