Every day on the Nigerian internet, there are people who keep our eyes glued to our phone screens as we read their rants, opinions, perspectives on political and social matters, etc. Sometimes, they are just downright ridiculous. We make it our job to take down the names of these noisemakers.
Here’s our list from today:
1 Donald Trump
President Trump sent the world scurrying into confusion today with just one tweet. Just like Queen Bey did with the twins, Trump shut down the internet. Then he came to 5 hours later and clicked delete, to our utter consternation, but not before Americans poked fun at him in a thousand different ways.
Trump definitely gives new meaning to the term “Leader of the free world”
2. Nneka
Did we mention that entire world participated in the fun that was “covfefe”? This was Nneka’s contribution:

Fun, isn’t it?
3. Donald Trump
Yes, POTUS has had such a full day, we had to feature him twice. After causing global mayhem through the early hours of the morning, Trump settled down to address the catastrophe that was Kathy Griffin’s photoshoot.
Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 31, 2017
Reactions:
TMZ reports: Barron Trump was watching TV & saw @kathygriffin holding the severed head. He thought it was his dad. My heart is broken.

Barron Trump saw a very long necktie on a heap of expired deli meat in a dumpster. He thought it was his dad & his little heart is breaking

Does @simonschuster support Ken making fun of the President's son for being upset that he thought his father was dead? https://t.co/brBxbQj9DY
— Nick Short ?? (@PoliticalShort) May 31, 2017
It takes a real man to pick on an 11 year old. Yet another low from the left, but they will rationalize this away with their usual excuses. https://t.co/JDF3VsVEJ1

If you’re out of the loop about Kathy Griffin, you’re in luck. Ezinne Ukoha wrote all about it here.
4. Melania Trump
First Lady of the United States did not mince any words as she dissected Kathy Griffin.

Kathy touched the mother bear, for sure. Wrong move, Kat.

5. Kathy Griffin
After stirring America, the SSS and the First Family to disproportionate levels of revulsion, Kathy Perry finally succumbed and apologized for showing a beheaded President Trump.

Reaction:
The #kathygriffin phony apology would be a lot easier to believe if there wasn't a video of her mocking the response she knew was coming.

6 Donald Trump Jr
Trump’s son did not waste any time calling for the termination of the comedian from the popular network:
Dear @CNN, I must have missed your statement banning your commentator #KathyGriffin from future shows. Please resend. Thx
— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) May 31, 2017
7 CNN
And CNN responded accordingly.
CNN announced that it has ‘terminated’ Kathy Griffin’s hosting duties for its New Year’s Eve program after she undertook a disturbing photo shoot featuring a bloodied Trump mask.
“Griffin has co-hosted CNN’s “New Year’s Eve Live” with Anderson Cooper since 2007, Fox News reports.”

CNN has fired Kathy Griffin.
"I'm really saddened by this" said one of their twelve viewers.

Kathy Griffin Fired by CNN shows they have standards, unlike Fox News, who kept Bill O'Sexual Assualter for years and buried complaints. pic.twitter.com/K9VRThy9bd

CNN dumps her;Squatty Potty flushes her;Kathy Griffin makes her own pile of it and causes a stink. Even the left wiped her off their shoes.

Liberalism vs Conservatism: @kathygriffin assaults fake head and loses job. Greg Gianforte assaults real reporter and goes to Congress.
