Pepe began on Reddit The_Donald as a pseudo meme and then became an addition to all kinds of things until the point it became what it is today ;)
No, dude. Pepe has been a 4chan meme since long before Donald ever announced running for President.
thank you!!
Incorrect. Pepe bled over to the_Donald from 4Chan. Pepe grew to prominence from GamerGate. This was pre-Trump.
