14 Trump-Trolling Tweets for Presidents Day
Making a special occasion of an everyday occurrence, the Twitterverse took extra care to let President Donald Trump know that it is not pleased with him on Monday, Presidents Day.
“Throughout our 100 years of existence we have held every president accountable,” the ACLU tweeted. “Happy Presidents’ Day.”
While many others are taking to Twitter to simply tweet Trump’s “The Apprentice” signature phrase — “You’re fired” — at him.

Among them is Sally Yates, the acting attorney general who was fired when she refused to enforce his travel ban targeting seven predominantly Muslim countries.
Others are taking a different approach, by quoting past Presidents, especially when what they’ve said runs counter to Trumpisms.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the president … is morally treasonable to the American public,” said “House of Cards” creator Beau Willimon, quoting Teddy Roosevelt. He went on to quote 12 other presidents with their most memorable lines.

And of course, there’s the ever-popular #PresidentBannon mantra.
Held on the third Monday of February each year to coincide with George Washington’s birth date on Feb. 22, 1732, President’s Day traditionally honors all persons who have served as president including the current one … but it doesn’t appear to be working out like that this year.
See below for a sampling of how Twitter is trolling Trump on Presidents Day.
