Hilarious hashtag on how Trump interprets classic literature
LONDON - Another debate, another Twitterstorm.
And this one has spawned possibly THE best hashtag of the election season - #TrumpBookReport
#TrumpBookReport began trending after local politician and Twitter citizen Antonio French tweeted this:
Trump's foreign policy answers sound like a book report from a teenager who hasn't read the book. "Oh, the grapes! They had so much wrath!"
- Antonio French (@AntonioFrench) October 20, 2016
From Dickens to Rowling, people began to tweet their own ideas of how Donald Trump might interpret classic works of literature:
A tale of two cities. And you know? Chicago is a really dangerous city. Probably the most dangerous city. DISASTER. #TrumpBookReport

Whether or not Trump "passed" is up to your discretion, but these tweets are an A+ in our book.

I know this isn't our usual kind of post but I thought it was too funny not to share. My favorites are the Les Miserables and the Wuthering Heights ones. Got any others to share?
ETA: As some of you know, I work for a very conservative Christian place and the person who runs it endorsed Trump, to the chagrin of a lot of people here. My supervisor hates Trump (but is very devout in his beliefs), so I sent him a link to this, and this was his reply: "This Mexican, Jesus, coulda been yuge, but was surrounded by 12 losers. I don't like guys that get crucified."
DEAD.
