A typical post picks up 52 interactions against 3.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 26 original posts, its engagement rate beats 15% of 20,182 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 33K times each, and 0.154% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.06% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 26 posts sampled, 69% carry an image or video and 31% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 37K interactions, about 703x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Former Congressman Matt Gaetz's engagement rate beats 15% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,182 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 11% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.002%, Former Congressman Matt Gaetz sits below the 10th percentile of the 204,424 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,424 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,888 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 01:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it

  • 69% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 31% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 328 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    As many of you know, and my millions of followers have seen, Matt Gaetz has spent the last several weeks relentlessly posting lie after lie about me and my views.  He is a disgraced individual and a truly awful person.  I supported the release of his ethics report, which is filled with evidence of vile and disgusting conduct.  If he had not resigned, he would have been expelled.  I opposed his nomination for attorney general.  He quickly withdrew.  So, he is angry and obsessed.  He's a truly repulsive individual who has done unconscionable things. He has no remorse and no shame.  He has never apologized to the people he harmed let alone acknowledged them in a human way. I have decided there is simply no purpose in responding to him.  It simply feeds his pathology.  The facts and the truth do not matter to him.  And I do not want to spend another minute dealing with his smears and obsessions.  There is too much real work to do and too many hugely consequential battles ahead.  He's a pointless distraction to too many.  Therefore, I will do my best to ignore him.  Good people will know who is who and what is what.

    It is not antisemitic to oppose the U.S. entering Israel’s war against Iran. It is not Islamophobic to oppose the U.S. entering Saudi Arabia’s war against the Houthis.

    “[Derek Chauvin] followed the textbook Minneapolis police training protocols… Minneapolis is a very progressive city, so the ideology was very powerful on the ground, and when I talk to people in Minneapolis, they say that within hours the narrative was baked in.” Editor-in-chief of The American Reformer @DDFStrand makes the case for the freedom of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin—arguing Chauvin followed standard police training protocols and was targeted by a progressive narrative of racial grievance.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 52 interactions against 3.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 26 original posts, its engagement rate beats 15% of 20,182 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 33K times each, and 0.154% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.06% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 26 posts sampled, 69% carry an image or video and 31% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 37K interactions, about 703x its own typical post.

What is Former Congressman Matt Gaetz's engagement rate on X?
Former Congressman Matt Gaetz (@FmrRepMattGaetz) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 26 original posts from the last 30 days against 3,137,217 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.002%, Former Congressman Matt Gaetz sits below the 10th percentile of the 204,424 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @FmrRepMattGaetz have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 15% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,182 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @FmrRepMattGaetz post?
Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.03 posts per day across the measured window.
