Anti-Trump Icon Becomes More Popular Than the Trump One
New York, NY (PRWEB) November 09, 2016 -- The icon depicting Donald Trump generates fewer downloads than the icon depicting a crossed-out Donald Trump, reports Icons8.
As the time of writing, the anti-Trump icon generates three times more downloads than the Trump one.
Both icons are free to download in any format for the week following the election.
“It reflects not only public opinion, but the purpose of the icons,” says Ivan Boyko, the founder of Icons8. “Icons that symbolize actions are more popular than those that illustrate entities. For example, the most popular icons on Icons8 are Delete and Search. Therefore, we believe people are downloading the anti-Trump icon as a call for action rather than a passive political statement. If we drew Trump building an impenetrable wall with Mexico, it would probably gain even more popularity.”
“Nevertheless, our community are creative professionals. Their download preferences represent the voting patterns of Silicon Valley, New York, and Austin.”
