Social media was lit on Sunday. President Donald Trump’s haters had a new excuse to tear into him.
The president was having some fun retweeting memes and gifs from supporters, but one set the social justice warriors off.

It showed the president hitting a golf ball, and then cut to a scene of Hillary Clinton falling as she boarded a plane. The gif made it appear as if the golf ball from President Trump struck her and caused her to fall.
While some might find the gif amusing, supporters of Clinton took it as the president supporting violence against the former Democrat presidential candidate.
Words fail. The president, folks, but not far from the boy who lobbed rocks at a neighbor’s baby carriage. Thinks hitting women is funny. https://t.co/adudJHXdTB

No. No he doesn’t. It was a golf ball, not a punch.
Donald Trump just retweeted this video attack on Hillary Clinton. And Trump cries and whines when someone calls him a sexist or a racist. https://t.co/BFXU30gBCL

As long as you aren’t overdramatic.
Classy retweet by the leader of the free world, man with nuke codes, fella who reads TelePrompter on national unity and respect for women. https://t.co/jNpNAd0thq
