Personally, I didn't think Trump had a bad trip, and a lot of what he said to NATO and the G7 actually had a pretty significant impact.

Ok so it's not exactly an article about eating poor Irish children, but satire like the kind we're seeing in the wake of The Donald is still effective and, at very least, gives people a laugh. Sure there are some dumb people that enjoy it, but I'm sure there are an equal number of dumb people saying "I'm tired of that, Trump did a good job today!"
As always, twitter and other forms of social media are catered to you, specifically, because they're ultimately customizable. You'd have to be a special kind to have seen this thread from day one and not realised that 90% of its purpose is a satirical/mocking look at the presidency day by day.
Instead of calling other people dumb for enjoying the memes, why don't you start a conversation about why you thought Trump had an impact during this trip?
