Week 13

During the school semester, I am rarely on social media. When I do go on, let’s say Facebook, I usually ignore most of the posts. I scroll for a bit then go back to whatever I was doing. I usually ignore most of the posts about Trump. It’s usually a video of him protesting/yelling obnoxiously. I was aware who Trump was way before people started making funny memes of him. I have lived all my life 15 minutes outside of Atlantic City, New Jersey. Since I am a resident of the area, I have heard a lot of crap about Trump and his casino.
Although I usually ignore Facebook posts about Trump, I still hear some about the latest unbelievable thing he has done. This past week, Trump mocked a reporter with a disability. Trump made fun of the reporter’s condition by jerking his arms in front of his body. This 3 second action was turned into a meme/gif. Now, it is not a meme in a traditional sense, but it is still an edited photo/video making fun of Trump. People have called his actions “low” and “despicable.” I believe the meme I have chosen has correctly shown the way some people feel about Trump, with his recent action.  

The meme is in the link below.
