I’ll keep this short. I have good news. Donald Trump thought he could intimidate MeidasTouch by attacking us in his latest NY court filing and blaming us for his criminal conviction. It backfired. We didn’t back down. We stood our ground. We laughed in his disgusting face. The Meidas Mighty had our back.
Trump’s attacks on us caused an outpouring of vocal support from the Meidas Mighty and a surge in subscribers here on Substack. MeidasTouch is now one of the most-read political Substacks in the world, and we’ve only been on this platform for 75 days. MeidasTouch is now the 8th most followed Bluesky account globally, with more followers than The Washington Post. Our YouTube ratings lead all major cable news channels. And we are 100 percent independent. How much does that piss you off, Donald?
The legal motion by Trump was a test by him and his goons. They wanted to see how you would react—how this community would react. You sent a clear message. The Meidas Mighty does not fear you, Donald. The Meidas Mighty will make our voices heard.
Let this be a clear warning, Donald: During the next four years, we will not back down. If you come after us, if you come after Americans, if you attack innocent human beings, we will rise up, we will march, and we will lead the biggest protests America has ever seen in its history. We are not scared. We are prepared.
This is our home. This is our community. The Meidas Mighty will not be silenced. Not now. Not ever.
Govern yourself accordingly, Donald.
Wow! The MeidasTouch Network is on the path to becoming the most subscribed Substack in the world. Help us get to number one. We have zero outside investors. Become a paid subscriber today and let’s make history together.
This is the first thing that has put a genuine smile on my face since 11/6.
If you don’t already have it, now you need merch. Honest, made in America merch. I’d absolutely buy it. Besides, the proceeds after expenses can be plowed back into the channel. Win win?
Can I just say “fuck yeah!” I love the heck out of Meidas Touch. Ben, you’ve been on it from day one. Good job fellas!
