This “fact check” says that stating that something started in 2018 implies that Trump caused it. No it doesn’t. The fact check is reading too much into the statement it is attempting to check. https://hbr.org/2021/11/leaders-stop-confusing-correlation-with-causation

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1837303297809461291

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
