Trump claims trending twitter topics which are about him are "illegal"

President Donald Trump complained on Twitter Monday about Twitter trending topics.

Yes, Twitter trending topics.

It’s unclear what trends set off the president in particular, but he tweeted, “So disgusting to watch Twitter’s so-called ‘Trending’, where sooo many trends are about me, and never a good one.”

<...>

“They look for anything they can find, make it as bad as possible, and blow it up, trying to make it trend,” Trump added.

He even went so far as to actually claim that what’s happening is “illegal.”

You’re the most powerful person on Earth. Whining like a crybaby while playing the victim card is NOT A GOOD LOOK.

Go whine somewhere else you coward. Seems to me you love to dish out hate and vile, but when it's directed at you whine and become a sniveling coward.
