Social media is having a lot of fun at President Donald Trump's expense.
- The hashtag #DiaperDon started trending on Twitter, in response to President Trump's near-constant whining about the election result, and what he sees as biased Twitter trends.
- It will be shorter this time because our readers have heard it today but we’re going to remind ourselves. Yesterday, 2,313 people died in the United States of COVID coinciding with the second-biggest travel day of the year, only Sunday is bigger. We keep saying this because it is actually one of the few times.

The 74-year-old President of the United States, who has not yet conceded to losing the presidential election to Joe Biden, held a press conference on Thanksgiving on Thursday (November 26).
However, it was his visibly small desk in comparison to the large room that got all the attention at the event, causing Twitter to go wild with comparisons of the President looking like a baby using different hashtags, including #tinydesk and #DiaperDon. #TrumpTantrum also began to trend at the same time.
'Clean your room, @realDonaldTrump #tinydesk,' one popular tweet reads.
'#DiaperDon and #tinydesk should trend for the next 54 days. Whoever looked at this gigantic room and made the decision to set up this playset complete with the presidential seal, thank you,' wrote another.
'This is real. This is not Photoshopped. #TinyDesk is trending, but it looks more like a piano bench to me,' observed one user.
'I have to think the same staffer behind the Four Seasons Total Landscaping debacle is the same one who convinced him this is a good look #DiaperDon,' someone else said.
A Trump appointee also went viral on Twitter with another hashtag relating to the pandemic. Find out what happened..
President Donald Trump spent part of his Thanksgiving holiday complaining about reporters, the election result, and what he sees as biased Twitter trends. Later on Thanksgiving evening, the hashtag #DiaperDon started trending on Twitter, ostensibly responding to what has become the commander in chief’s near-constant whining.
That’s it. That’s the tweet post.
All of this followed a White House press gaggle that was far more contentious than what was likely planned. In his first time taking questions from reporters since losing, Trump railed against the election process, and compared the United States to a “third world country” and declared “I didn’t lose,” in a White House gaggle. “So no, I can’t say that at all,” Trump said of conceding. He attacked Reuters reporter Jeff Mason as a “lightweight” before moving on to another, who asked if he would leave the White House in January.
It went downhill from there.
“Just so you understand, this election was a fraud,” Trump continued. “So no, I can’t say that at all. I think it’s a possibility… they’re trying to, look, between you people…” As Mason started to talk over Trump in an attempt to ask his question again, Trump snapped. “Don’t talk to me that way,” he protested. “You’re just a lightweight. Don’t talk to me that way. Don’t talk to…”
As New York Times’Maggie Habermannoted on Twitter, “If one doesn’t want to answer such questions on a holiday, they could have taken questions at any other point since Nov 3.”
It’s not clear when it started trending, but later on, #DiaperDon was revealed by Twitter to be a number one trend, which continued through late Thanksgiving and into Black Friday morning: Download software for mac detox my mac.
© Provided by MediaiteThis did not please President Trump, as he followed up on Twitter calling out what he deemed “totally false ‘Trends’ that have nothing to do with what is really trending in the world,” and alleged that it was all made up. He curiously threw Fox News under the bus, calling out its news-based daytime programming.
Twitter is sending out totally false “Trends” that have absolutely nothing to do with what is really trending in the world. They make it up, and only negative “stuff”. Same thing will happen to Twitter as is happening to @FoxNews daytime. Also, big Conservative discrimination!

Diaper Donald
He followed by suggesting that Twitter was a threat to national security and said that “Section 230” of the Communications Decency Act should be “immediately terminated!!!” Section 230 generally provides immunity for website publishers from third-party content.
For purposes of National Security, Section 230 must be immediately terminated!!!

Trump’s apparent whining on Twitter … about a Twitter trend designed to mock his whining on Twitter? That’s where we are people. Also? This was prime for mockery in and of itself. To wit:
Maybe if you behave yourself, stop lying to undermine a fair election & start thinking of what's good for the country instead of whining about how unfairly you are treated, you'll be invited to sit at the big boy's table. #DiaperDonpic.twitter.com/nnNOoOI1gl

Trump is extremely upset that #DiaperDon is trending, so he wants to shut down Twitter, because of how conservatives love free speech. pic.twitter.com/m5dprHRMwi

You know, having a hissy fit because you’re overtired from playing at your kiddy desk, is probably not the best way to get #DiaperDon to stop trending. pic.twitter.com/ffLmbmz4Sn Adobe photoshop mac magnet torrent download.

I normally don’t kick a guy when he’s down. But Donnie’s down 6 million votes and throwing temper tantrums like a toddler still in diapers, so… #Pampered#FullOfCrap#DiaperDon
