Someone tweeted for it

You can tell because it requires a calm “mommy”

Mommy, I was saddened to learn of the passing of India's former President, Pranab Mukherjee. I send my condolences to his family and the people of India as they grieve the loss of a great leader.

It's obvious when his tweets aren't written by him, except when he lets djtj rant on his account... then it's a little hard to tell.

2. You think he knows the difference between a President

and a Prime Minister? I'm betting that the first time he heard the name Mukherjee was when the announcement of his death went public.

9. So Am I To Understand That It Isn't Trump That Is Tweeting With The 'Mommy' - But It Is.....

added on after the fact? How did this start? Is the 'Mommy' Pence's wife?

10. No, it's not Trump tweeting with the 'Mommy'

Someone on here suggested adding "Mommy.." before his tweets make them easier to read.

If he tweeted, "The Deep State is against me", think "Mommy.. the Deep State is against me".

It makes it more true to life, as it makes him sound more like the bratty little 8 year old he is.

No offense to bratty little 8 year olds.

12. Ikr? All of his alarming tweets in the last couple of days

have started with"Mommy!!" It didn't make sense in then. Adding to a condolence tweet is just strange.

18. Well now I feel silly for not realizing. D'oh!

When it comes to his tweets, I often don't click through unless it's someone quoting him. I don't like giving him the clicks or seeing the bootlickers on his feed, so that's my own fault for not knowing. I'm relieved that wasn't real! 🤭

20. Ha! I assume most people can see the actual tweet above

But of course not everyone can, which is why I paste the text in the first place.

Well, oops, I meant well...!
