How the format works
- Posts -- Truth Social, X, and other social (when we have a source URL)
- Video -- clips and video remarks with a link to watch
- Interview / speech -- on-the-record quotes with date and outlet
- Reporting -- credible coverage of positioning when it is not a direct quote
We expand timelines as new sourced statements land. Thin speculation without a primary source does not get an entry.
