Donald Trump’s latest meltdown included tweeting a Nickelback meme – 11 hilarious reactions
They say that it’s quietest in the eye of the storm, but Donald Trump must surely be dead centre of the hurricane surrounding his phone call to the Ukrainian president, yet he’s anything but calm. Watch how he behaved at this press conference with the Finnish president.
President Trump lashed out at @Reuters reporter @jeffmason1, who asked him what he wanted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to do when Trump brought up the business ties to Ukraine of Hunter Biden, son of Joe Biden https://t.co/3aiSLeOfBL pic.twitter.com/AQF3dpkChs

As always, there were tweets – loads of them – and one in particular has grabbed people’s attention.

EDIT: Someone, probably Nickelback, had the video taken down, and who can blame them.
As well as being an attempt to smear a potential presidential election opponent, the inclusion of the Nickelback song “Photograph”, complete with a quote, caused raised eyebrows, as well as muffled laughter, outright guffaws and many takedowns. These really stood out.

Imagine sitting in a coffee shop in 2014 and telling a friend that 5 years from now President Trump will try to buy Greenland, want to turn the border into an Indiana Jones-style snake pit and share Nickelback meme videos. The friend would drive you straight to a shrink’s office.

Currently "Moloch" and "Nickelback" are trending next to each other in my Trends bar, if anyone is curious about how badly things are going in the U.S. right now.

Tweeting Nickelback songs is *probably* an impeachable offense.#TrumpMeltdown

Voting for Trump is similar to buying a Nickelback album. 60 million people did it and ten years later they will claim they didn't.

You know your Presidency is over when you resort to tweeting Nickelback.

If you were wondering whether the photograph in question was a smoking gun …it wasn’t.
Trump posted a video w Nickelback singing "look at this photograph" that supposedly showed Joe & Hunter Biden playing golf w a Ukranian Gas Exec. The supposed gas exec was Hunter Bidens longtime American business partner.
He thought he had a scoop & is getting roasted epically

Finally, journalist David Leavitt posted food for thought.
Retweet if you’d rather listen to Nickelback than @realDonaldTrump
