I've frequently noticed whenever there's some information that is seriously harmful to Trump or the GOP, it can take over 1 minute to load, while other tweets are almost instant.
Open this tweet in an in-private browser and you should see crazy long load times if you're in certain states.
I think they also have some things to conceal their activity too. I think they have a policy configured where certain locations will receive long load times.
Sometimes it's fast from the same machine if I've loaded it recently (not cached), which I think is intentional based on IP.
If I spin up a vanilla Azure Enterprise 365 machine on Microsoft's reliably hosted internet, where I get speeds like this, I notice if the VM is located in Arizona, it seems to load quickly, but in CA I've noticed poorer performance.
It seems like intentional political slowdowns and doing in a way to be surreptitious and to conceal their actions.

Do you have any other examples of slow loading times for anti trump tweets?
Similarly have you got any examples of pro trump tweets that load quickly?
Thanks!!
If you’ll remember back to the 2020 election, trumps team yelled from the rooftops that the government was censoring twitter and that Biden steam had forced twitter to take down posts. Biden was not an elected nor a government official. He was a private citizen. There was no government censorship coming from the democrats. It would later be released that there was indeed government censorship at twitter and it was coming from trumps White House. This appears to be a similar event. However, this time Trump is a private citizen and not a government official. Musk is manipulating tweets to help Trump.
