political memes
Donald Trump was photographed yesterday walking toward a crowd of his supporters while on his way to a memorial service in honor of 9/11. The amusing photo shows Trump with his fists in the air, appearing to be 'double fist-pumping,' which people have been photoshopping and meme-ing enthusiastically.
Donald Trump's former personal attorney Michael Cohen made headlines on Tuesday after he pleaded guilty to eight criminal charges, including violations of campaign finance rules, and the paying off of two women (including Stormy Daniels) with whom Trump had affairs. The latter took place under the direction of Trump himself, according to Cohen's lawyer, Lanny Davis.
Cohen could serve up to five years in prison under his plea agreement.
While we wait to see what happens in the end, here are some satirical memes we've picked out for your viewing pleasure!
Earlier this month, the G7 Summit took place in which a fantastic photo was taken of German Chancellor Angela Merkel leaning over a table to talk to Donald Trump, who looks less than impressed. Of course, the photo just happened to be snapped at an inopportune moment that doesn't tell the whole story, but people are having fun meme-ing it nonetheless.
Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un had a historical meeting today in Singapore. The meeting, during which Trump announced the United States would cease military exercises near the Korean peninsula, was broadcast live internationally. Jong Un, in response, pledged that North Korea would remain committed to ridding themselves of nuclear weapons.
While the surprising meeting is an exciting step for international diplomacy, it's also proved to be an exciting step for this month of memes. Photographs of the two leaders are being meme'd to oblivion on Reddit - and the results have been dank, dirty, and absolutely hilarious.
