I don't think it actually works to tie him to the creator. I doubt very much any of us knows who created the memes we re post.
Clearly a dick move by the orange one but blaming him for the person who created the gifs actions is a stretch and makes you look silly and desperate IMHO.

He visits sites that are hate-filled and racist, so that is what he borrows from.
