Earlier this week, the world-famous billionaire was looked upon a tweet by a follower (named "@Feckhead) who wanted him (and his followers) to recognize the legacy of his parents, who "died". Here's the tweet:
Hi @realDonaldTrump. My parents who passed away always said you were big inspiration.Can you pls RT for their memory? pic.twitter.com/veBxFNXnOd

Soon after reading this, Trump retweeted the tweet to his followers around the world, sending him love and respect, and the guy ended up happy and in tears of joy...or so we thought.
But here's what he (to his later horror) and the rest of America (to our amusement) didn't know about @Feckhead's "parents". As it turns out, they are Fred and Rose West, a notorious husband and wife team of--get this--MURDERERS from the UK.
After this screw-up, the Great British public were understandably furious. But...instead of tweeting back at Mr. Trump in a furor, they tweeted humorous tweets asking him to honor their "parents", and tied them to some of the most infamous and horrible people in the history of mankind. Whether real or fictional...or maybe even non-sentient.
Some of said tweets include:
Adolf Hitler

This seriously reminds of that So-Med campaign by the NYPD earlier this year that epically failed overnight. Same execution, different punch bag.
Okay, even though I don't blame Trump for doing a nice thing like sending support for a random unknown, I really don't understand why anyone would retweet something in this manner from someone with a handle like "@Fechhead".
As much as it is killing me in the laugh department, it's not the worst thing Trump has went through. Nope. At least not yet.
