Analysis: Retweet of Supporter Praise ("boss")

Low-intensity post. Trump retweets a supporter who calls him "boss" with an accompanying image link. This is part of a series of supporter retweets on this date, all serving as narcissistic supply during the pre-announcement period (June 2015 announcement was weeks away).

Authorship: 7:21 PM ET Saturday evening — could be either Trump or aide. The retweet-of-praise pattern is consistent with Trump's authentic behavior, though the timing is ambiguous.

Psychological Notes: The "boss" honorific is notable — Trump selects this particular retweet from presumably many options, suggesting resonance with the power/authority framing. This fits the pattern of curating an image of grassroots support and dominant social positioning ahead of his campaign announcement.

Longitudinal: This is one of at least five supporter retweets on the same day, indicating a supply-seeking binge — systematically amplifying voices that validate the nascent candidacy.
