How this page is made
Newsdesk, the newsroom tool behind the show, reads every one of Trump’s posts for endorsements (“Complete and Total Endorsement” and the like). Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, picks out who and for which race, and a pick only counts once its quote is found word for word in his post. Every pick links to his posts.
Results come from Wikipedia’s election results, which Newsdesk reads itself. For the few races it can’t find there, Claude searches the web, and those say Found with AI help. Races are looked up again the morning after the vote, then every 6 hours for a week, and each result links to its source. A count can still change until it’s certified.
Every race, his or not, comes from Wikipedia’s pages for the year’s Senate, governor and House elections, where editors mark each winner as the race is called. Newsdesk reads them itself, with no AI, and a call shows here once two reads in a row agree, so one taken back within minutes never shows.
