get_trends not working with 'news' and 'sports' categories

[ericjkge]

I've been trying to use twikit to get trends from X, but the get_trends function doesn't work when I use 'news' or 'sports' as my category ('trending,' 'for-you,' and 'entertainment' work fine). Below is the error code from trying to use news:

Please try this:

        additional_request_params : :class:`dict`, default=None
            Parameters to be added on top of the existing trends API
            parameters. Typically, it is used as `additional_request_params =
            {'candidate_source': 'trends'}` when this function doesn't work
            otherwise.
