Donald Trump Returns To Twitter And Is Mercilessly Mocked For ‘Pussy’ Comments
After what was probably the worst 24 hours of Donald Trump’s campaign so far, the GOP candidate returned to Twitter. Trump was notable for his absence during the long wait for his video taped apology yesterday. This morning Trump tweeted “Certainly has been an interesting 24 hours!”
Twitter users were quick to jump on Trump’s tweet. Many users pointed out that his midnight apology was not an apology at all and some saw his tweet about the controversy as a deliberate joke. Users posted photos of toast, told the billionaire to ‘fuck off’ and wondered what effect his comments would have on his children. “You just killed your daughter’s brand, you know, the one you want to date?” one user wrote.
A number of Republicans have rescinded their endorsements of Trump, including Utah Congressman Jason Chaffetz, who appeared visibly shaken last night when he asked how he would explain Trump’s comments to his 15-year-old daughter.
Trump has used twitter for months to promote himself and his campaign. His mild tweet about the last 24 hours may have been an attempt to ease back into his favorite social medium but the online reaction has been furious. “Stop tweeting and work on your concession speech,” one user tweeted, echoing calls from Republican lawmakers for Trump to step down as the party’s candidate.
Many people tweeted pictures of cats at Trump and wondered how he ‘grabs pussy’ with his ‘small hands’. There is growing speculation that RNC insiders are seriously considering moving against Trump as more Republicans condemn his comments.
