President Donald Trump left for his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida along with his family on Tuesday, November 26, for Thanksgiving holidays. However, he did not disconnect himself with his political role as he addressed his excited supporters in the Sunshine State. And he did something incredible the next day, November 27.

At his rally, Trump blasted the media for the coverage of his recent, unscheduled visit to the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for an examination. Since the visit was hastily planned, people speculated that the president had an urgent medical need. It was even reported that he had a chest discomfort. But the septuagenarian rubbished those reports and claimed he has a “gorgeous chest”.

The maverick president did not stop there. He decided to back his claims with a picture and tweeted on Wednesday a photo-shopped image of his own face superimposed on what appeared to be the toned physique of fictional boxer Rocky Balboa portrayed by Sylvester Stallone. 



 

Trump did not caption the image and it did not take much time for the social media to go mad over it. The Twitterati chose to roast the president, but knowing his bizarre social media engagements, one would not be too surprised if Trump enjoyed the entire episode. He even retweeted English media personality Piers Morgan retweeting his image with laughter.

However, Stallone seemed to have nothing to say about the tweet. 

Trump, who is battling an impeachment inquiry at the moment over his alleged act of pressuring Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate domestic political rival Joe Biden, has been found to be in a light mood of late.

On Tuesday, while pardoning the Thanksgiving turkey at the White House, the president mocked the impeachment proceedings against him saying even the bird had been subpoenaed by the House Democrats.

Trump is known to retweet parody photos and memes that are generally made by his supporters but, this time, he came up with something original and there were reactions from both sides of the political divide. While some of his supporters said he had a great sense of humor, there were others who trolled him mercilessly. One, for example, said: "This is all wrong. Rocky defeated Russia, while Trump continues to hand them victories."

The tweet saw over 260,000 likes and 79,000 retweets within an hour of getting posted.

In May, 2017, Trump posted on Twitter an apparently meaningless word ‘Covfefe’ that had left everybody guessing what he meant. He later challenged people to try to find what he had intended to say in that tweet.
