Assessment

Why?

Strongest counted support: Asked about badges and pool access, Trump gave no practical detail about the ban. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The excerpt asks whether badges would be taken or outlets banned from the pool, but Trump responds by asking which ban and discussing his number of bans without specifying those practical measures.

Review gaps: independence reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
