Former president Donald Trump has said Prime Minister <keyword id="19895781" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="narendra-modi" source="keywords">Narendra Modi</keyword> will meet him next week during his upcoming three-day visit to the US. While the Republican presidential candidate slammed India as an "abuser" on the issue of import tariffs, he described Modi as a "fantastic man". PM Modi will be visiting the US from September 21 to 23. Speaking on Tuesday at his first public appearance following the recent apparent assassination attempt, Trump said Modi will meet him next week when he is in the US. "So when India, which is a very big abuser. He (Modi) happens to be coming to meet me next week, and Modi, he's fantastic. I mean, fantastic man. A lot of these leaders are fantastic," Trump said, reiterating that India imposes heavy tariffs on imports. The former president revealed the information as he spoke about trade and tariffs while responding to a question at a town hall meeting in Flint, Michigan. He went on to say, "These people are the sharpest people. They're not a little bit backwards...You know the expression, they're at the top of their game, and they use it against us. But India is very tough. Brazil is very tough....China is the toughest of all, but we were taking care of China with the tariffs." "So we're going to do a reciprocal trade. If anybody charges us 10 cents, if they charge us USD 2, if they charge us a hundred per cent, 250, we charge them the same thing. And what's going to happen? Everything's going to disappear, and we're going to end up having free trade again. And if it doesn't disappear, we're going to take in a lot of money," he said. Modi will begin his trip with the <keyword id="23214075" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Quad-Leaders-Summit" source="keywords">Quad Leaders' Summit</keyword> being hosted by President Joe Biden in Wilmington, Delaware. The summit will be attended by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese of Australia and Prime Minister Kishida Fumio of Japan. Modi will then travel to New York and address a mega community event in Long Island on September 22. He will address world leaders at the landmark Summit of the Future event at the UN headquarters the next day. Modi's visit comes less than two months before the US heads into presidential elections with Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris in the race for the top job. The US general elections will take place on November 5.

<ul class="summary-list"><li><keyword id="19918985" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Donald-Trump" source="keywords">Donald Trump</keyword> won the election with the help of personalities like <keyword id="20341465" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Joe-Rogan" source="keywords">Joe Rogan</keyword>.</li><li>Rogan is a podcaster, right? Well, yes, but he's also a YouTuber.</li></ul><a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-joe-rogan-tony-hinchcliffe-rally-election-campaign-2024-10">Podcasts played a huge role in getting Donald Trump re-elected</a> this week. Right? Or maybe it was Twitter. Or TikTok. Could be all of them. And it could also be that people interested in those mediums and platforms have reasons to want to believe they were important. But if you're going to look at the way the internet played a role in the election and you're not talking about YouTube, you're doing it wrong. So, once again: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/youtube-valuation-mrbeast-how-much-worth-2024-3">YouTube is massive</a> — so massive <a target="_blank" href="https://abc.xyz/assets/71/a5/78197a7540c987f13d247728a371/2024q3-alphabet-earnings-release.pdf">it generated $50 billion in revenue over the last year</a>, with the majority of that coming from advertising. Advertisers are spending that money because that's where the eyeballs are. And certainly, some of those eyeballs consumed a lot of political/election content over the last year. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.pewresearch.org/journalism/fact-sheet/social-media-and-news-fact-sheet/">Pew Research</a> says 32% of American adults regularly get their news from YouTube — more than any other social media platform except for Facebook, at 33%. And I'm very confident — based on my non-scientific poll of my teenage sons, who inhale YouTube — that those numbers are way, way bigger for young people. What do people who watch political stuff watch on YouTube? In some cases, it's just another version of TV: Fox News reportedly drew as many as 1.1 million concurrent viewers for its election-day livestream on YouTube. That was about 10% of its conventional TV audience, but still notable for a platform that skews very young. Overall, YouTube viewers consumed 67 million hours of live streams on Election Day, per <a target="_blank" href="https://fortune.com/2024/11/06/youtube-election-news-trump-harris-twitch-rumble-stream-fox-nbc/">Streams Charts</a>. But what was most interesting about the election was the way the Trump campaign spent the summer embracing YouTube personalities. Starting with people you've heard of, like Joe Rogan, down to ones you may have never heard of before this year, like the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/FULLSENDPODCAST">Nelk Boys</a>. Wait a minute! I can hear you saying. Isn't Joe Rogan a podcaster? Absolutely. But Rogan, like many other creators/influencers/personalities, creates content that lives on multiple platforms at the same time. You can listen to his <keyword id="20677488" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="podcasts" source="keywords">podcasts</keyword> on Spotify, but you can listen to them — and watch them — on YouTube. And that happens way more often than you might think. <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.edisonresearch.com/youtube-is-the-preferred-podcast-listening-service/">Edison Research</a> says YouTube — including both regular, free YouTube and YouTube's paid YouTube Music service — is the most popular way for people to listen to (or watch) podcasts. You can see it in some of the numbers. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBMoPUAeLnY">Rogan's October interview with Trump</a> has drawn a staggering 47 million views (note: Don't try comparing this to a TV rating, since YouTube reportedly counts a "view" as 30 seconds of watching — and someone who watches for a bit, stops and comes back to the same video later in the day, will count as a second view). <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRyyTAs1XY8">The one he did with JD Vance</a> this month is now above 15 million. But even <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/@joerogan">a standard-issue Rogan interview</a> can generate 2 million views or more. And there is a universe of conservative podcasts, or podcasts that aren't political but are open to conservative guests that do big numbers on YouTube, from former Fox hosts Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly to former reality TV star Theo Von. Trump visited all of them. You can also find bits of their shows on places like Instagram and TikTok. But they focus their efforts on YouTube, for the reasons many creators do. For starters, you can find a big audience there. And YouTube's algorithmic discovery mechanism means creators can get themselves in front of audiences that weren't looking for them. Podcast audiences, by contrast, grow slowly — but tend to stick around once they connect with someone they like, says Chris Balfe, CEO of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.redseatventures.com/clients">Red Seat Ventures</a>, a company that helps the likes of Carlson, Kelly and The Free Press' Bari Weiss sell ads for their shows. And, unlike platforms like Instagram and TikTok — podcasters can get a meaningful share of the <keyword id="20015770" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="advertising-revenue" source="keywords">advertising revenue</keyword> generated by their YouTube audiences. (There are also liberal/left podcasters/YouTubers, like Crooked Media, the company behind Pod Save America. But there aren't nearly as many of them, and they don't have the same kind of reach, as journalist <a target="_blank" href="https://www.usermag.co/p/why-democrats-wont-build-their-own">Taylor Lorenz notes</a>.) So should we be calling these folks podcasters? Or YouTubers? Yes, says Balfe. "I think they're the same thing. We should think about it as a podcast plus a <keyword id="23944857" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="YouTube-election" source="keywords">YouTube election</keyword>," he says. "Or a <keyword id="20437786" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="creator-economy" source="keywords">creator economy</keyword> election. The best-performing talents do well everywhere." Correction: November 11, 2024 — Streams Charts is the name of the company that tallied Election Day YouTube live-stream viewing, not Stream Charts.

Tony Hinchcliffe, a speaker at Trump's Sunday rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City, said: "I don't know if you guys know this, but there's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it's called Puerto Rico." The comment angered Puerto Rican celebrities. Luis Fonsi, the singer behind the 2017 hit "Despacito," wrote on his Instagram story: "It's ok to have different views, and I respect those who think different than me…. but going down this RACIST path ain't it." He said: "We are not ok with this constant hate. It's been abudantly clear that these people have no respect for us and yet they want our vote." Martin shared the video on his story and captioned it in Spanish: "This is what they think of us." On their Instagram stories, Fonsi, Lopez, and Martin shared a video of Harris outlining her plan to support Puerto Rico if she were elected, and urged their followers to vote for the Democratic nominee. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/bad-bunny-ai-generated-tiktok-song-nostalgia-voice-rant-2023-11">Bad Bunny</a>, a rapper and singer, reshared the same video on his story four times in a row without any captions. None of these celebrities were great Republican allies before. Still, high-profile interventions can energize often-apathetic voters to turn out. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/celebrity-endorsements-impact-on-elections/">CBS News</a> reported in September that more than 400,000 users visited the <a target="_blank" href="http://vote.gov">vote.gov</a> voter registration website the day after<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/taylor-swift-kamala-harris-endorsement-criticism-explained-2024-9"> Taylor Swift endorsed Harris</a>on Instagram. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/market-impact-presidential-election-scenarios-trump-harris-stocks-bonds-crypto-2024-10" target="_blank">Harris</a>' Instagram account shared the clip about her plan earlier on Sunday. In the video, she accuses Trump of blocking aid after <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-called-puerto-rico-a-place-with-absolutely-no-hope-book-2022-10" target="_blank">two hurricanes hit Puerto Rico</a> in the span of two weeks in 2017. Hurricane Maria, one of the storms, caused over $90 billion in damage, a historic blackout, and the deaths of an estimated 2,975 people in Puerto Rico. Trump said in 2018 that his administration's response to the hurricanes was "an incredible, unsung success," but it was widely criticized at the time. In 2021, a report by the Department of Housing and Urban Development <a target="_blank" href="https://www.hudoig.gov/sites/default/files/2021-04/HUD%20OIG%20Final%20Report_2019SU008945I.pdf">Office of Inspector General</a> found that $20 billion in aid the department intended to send to Puerto Rico was delayed due to interagency reviews under the Trump administration. The investigators did not say why these reviews were implemented. It's not the first time Trump and his allies have angered celebrities from a Caribbean community. Last month, high-profile Haitians including Wyclef Jean, Rep. Shelia Cherfilus-McCormick, the first Haitian-American in Congress, and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills personality Garcelle Beauvais spoke out after Trump made the false claim that Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, were killing and eating pets. Correction: October 28, 2024 — An earlier version of this story misstated the statistics about hurricanes Irma and Maria. The details relate to Maria only, not both storms.

The nomination has reportedly stunned some military leaders, Washington insiders, and at least one of Hegseth's Fox News colleagues."You're telling me Pete is going to oversee 2 million employees?" a fellow Fox host asked <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/13/media/pete-hegseth-fox-news-trump-defense-secretary/index.html">CNN's Brian Stelter</a>.Again: During Trump's first term, he was famous for 1) hiring people he saw on TV, 2) hiring people who "looked the part," and 3) hiring Fox News talent in particular. Hegseth, an Army National Guard veteran, ticks all those boxes. Regardless of whether he's the right guy to manage 2 million people.So yes. TV's going to remain important to Trump.On the other hand: The border between TV and Twitter — or more broadly, the internet — has always been permeable in the Trump era. Some of the clips you're seeing right now to explain who Hegseth is come from the internet — like <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoN5ovwB8s4">the interview he did last week with podcaster/YouTuber Shawn Ryan</a>, one of the many men with <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/youtube-donald-trump-podcasts-joe-rogan2024-11">podcasts/YouTube channels</a> Trump visited during the 2024 campaign.Trump, who famously didn't use a computer for years, isn't hanging out on Twitter, YouTube, and 4chan. But he listens to people who do.And now one of the loudest voices in the room — perhaps the loudest voice, at the moment — is <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk">Elon Musk</a>, who is both a Twitter creature and Twitter's owner.Here's The <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/13/us/politics/musk-trump-transition-mar-a-lago.html">New York Times</a> on Musk's ascent to the top of Trumpworld:The Times also notes that Musk recently "walked into the dining room about 30 minutes after the president-elect did and received a similar standing ovation."That seems like the kind of thing that might eventually cause a rift between two men who really enjoy a solo spotlight. But for now, both things can be true: Donald Trump has both Twitter and TV on his mind — even if he's only actually watching one of them.
