Other than it being about something Trump related (i.e. 91.6% of recent threads), we don't know what the thread topic is.
I bolded what I want to touch upon:
Actually, from that thread title What Trump did now informs me precisely about what the thread is, which is something that Trump did.
If the title was more along the lines of Look who did something now..., that be more accurate as clickbaiting, because there is no subject matter to inform us of whom. At least with a whom, one knows about what the thread will be.
If you click the thread What Trump did now and you are disappointed by what he did, that is not the fault of the original poster. You knew full well it was "something" that Trump did, and that is all the clicker needs to know. The point of a title is to draw in the reader, not to give the entire story in the title, because then there would likely be no point in even clicking on the thread at all.
