The audience actually says: 28% Popcornmeter - 5000+ All Audience

Indeed, be really careful

weird, because this page says 10% / 99%

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/melania

which one are you reading ?

I’m reading the same page as you are.

Click on the 99% and a popup opens where you can select between All Audience and „Verified“ Audience.

I would have though verified audience was the more reliable indicator.
Ermmmm… How exactly is Rotten Tomatoes gonna verify audiences in e.g. France or Germany or Australia???

The so called „verification“ counts only US users who purchased tickets through the US Fandango app and nobody else, no?

I don't think Melania the documentary is going to be that popular in France, Germany or Australia, do you?
Goalposts successfully moved. Good work.

You can't claim it's 99% audience approved, then say "[only the American] audience [who purchased tickets via Fandango]". If you include the full audience, it has a 28% approval with 5000+ ratings, like the replier indicated.
