Lots of people tweet memes without checking who made them. The president of the United States — or someone close to him who manages his social media account — seems to be one of those people.
On Sunday morning, President Trump tweeted out a doctored old video of a professional wrestling match in which he, appearing in character as himself, pummeled another performer and sent them to the ground. Except someone had replaced the other wrestler’s head with the CNN logo — a jokey meme that reflects the president’s long-running feud with the cable news network.
But Trump didn’t create the video. That honor apparently belongs to a person who had posted a version of the video on Reddit last week, raising questions about how the meme found its way to the president’s Twitter account. It seems the anonymous user — who uses an online moniker that combines the name of a “Star Wars” character with an unpopular part of the human anatomy — has a history of posting racist, homophobic, anti-Islamic and anti-Semitic comments on the site. Many of them, like the online name, aren’t appropriate to be reprinted here.
“Wow!!” the user wrote Sunday in a post in the “the_donald” subreddit, where Trump fans often congregate. “I never expected my meme to be retweeted by the God Emporer himself!!!”

“linked to” = FAKE NEWS
In Mein Kampf, Hitler said, “The sky is blue.” This simple fact links many thousands of people to Nazis. Pity.
How can supposedly college-educated supposedly journalists write something this stunningly stupid? I don’t like to use that last word, but what else can you say?
: ) Great graphic. Thanks for posting.
HOORAY President Donald J. Trump. Thank you, sir.
File under “nobody else cares”
Jernuhlists don’t have to know basic grammar anymore (among other things).
This was devestatingly effective meme against the bullschit of the Left.
Which means that the offending kid MUST BE DOXXED, and all of the consequences of that, as an example to others that would dare to question MediaMatters-approved narratives.
Die, dinosaur media, die!
This isn’t a matter of ignorance. An order has gone out, probably from the New York Times, mandating the gender-neutral word “them.” What is shocking is that EVERYONE, including Catholics, has fallen in line.
I’ve seen “they” used when the antecedent is “SON”!
I've seen that, too. Ridiculous. I hadn't thought about its being the new, liberal marching orders.
Sigh...
The NYT does it now and then. Around 1991 they decreed that “abortion” would be “abortion-rights,” and “pro-life” would be “anti-abortion-rights.”
Thus, people fighting euthanasia are often called “anti-abortion-rights protestors.”
These snowflakes are fun to watch.

Well CNN has 2 N’s. Nazi starts with N!
C Neo Nazis!
“Once again, Trump tweets a meme linked to a brazen racist (LA Slimes chases Trump’s shiny thing)
“As, Rush Limbaugh noted, the mediots are like cats chasing the dot from a laser.
Enjoy! Imagine the CNN Fake News thugs like Jake Tapper or Killer Joe and Ho Mika, instead of the cats, chasing the laser dot.
