Donald Trump Comes Out on Top - On Facebook
A total of 3.4 million people on the social media site either liked, posted, commented on or shared news about Trump 6.4 million times, according to statistics provided by the company.
The only candidate from either party to top him was Hillary Clinton, who generated 10.1 million interactions from 4.7 million people in the 24-hour period surrounding her launch.
But other candidates have recently touted their reach on social media. Trump’s next-closest rival was Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who created 5.5 million interactions by 2.1 million people when he became the first major candidate to announce a presidential bid for 2016.
