A Trump supporter’s attempt to troll British critics of the president saw him comprehensively put in his place
The definition of a cult includes characteristics such as ‘charismatic leadership’, ‘absolute loyalty and devotion’ by its adherents, an ‘Us vs. Them’ mentality and an ‘ideological rigidity’ with little tolerance for dissent. Confirmation that MAGA is indeed a cult.
One such cult member with a big following on Twitter is Rothmus, who is, rather inevitably, followed by Elon Musk.
Here’s one of his recent posts, which attempts to mock British anti-Trump sentiment.

Bold stuff. But people weren’t going to just let it slide and the replies were most entertaining – as we showcase below.

the land area of the UK is 93,628 sq mi
the land area of michigan is 58,110 sq mi
in terms of inhabitable area, the UK is larger.

Yeah, and Trump has almost ruined the USAmerican empire in 100 DAYS, and managed to make people laugh at or hate the US.
Then again the US are always better at things than everybody else, right?
Even when it's a negative thing.— Meepsia Magpie (@Meepsia) May 5, 2025

Yes and we are immensely proud of how we gave up our empire. It's not all about ruling the world, as you MAGAs need to realise.

And yet the British, along with the rest of the developed world have moved on and tried to reconcile their colonial past. Meanwhile, the US still thinks that killing innocent people and stealing land is a competition and that they are the “winners”
Fuck the yanks!!

When I see a post like this, I just remember it took less than 90 days for Trump and MAGA to go from the USA being seen as a trustworthy and mostly respected ally to being the worlds laughing stock.

What do they think the end result of the US debt spiral will be? Are they not aware of what’s currently happening to the US? https://t.co/05WHgV9nhG

American should admit that there's a reason EVERYONE is mocking President Trump.
He should pick up a book on economics
