There are definitely times when Twitter seems like a curse.When a certain Republican presidential candidate gets on there at 3AM to tweet out his his attacks on women’s rights, you have to wonder if the site actually serves any useful purpose.
Then somebody gets a genius idea for a hashtag and you realize that people are incredibly funny. Smart, sarcastic and hilarious, all at once.
Last night someone started the hashtag #TrumpANovel. Twitter users were asked to change the name of a famous novel to make it seem as if Trump either wrote it or was featured in it.
Oh, my God.
Look at some of these.

A lot of people out there clearly have time on their hands and frustration in their hearts. A bunch of the funniest tweets focused on women’s rights and how much Trump hates the fact that they exist.
There was “The Girl I Grab On the Train,” for example. Or the “Gropes of Wrath.” Someone put up “David Cop-A-Feel,” isn’t that fantastic? Or these:

Some of the tweets were less funny without the visuals. Put in the image, though, and you can’t hold in your chuckles. Check out these tweets for a good laugh.

I particularly like the following title. It just seemed like justice. Not exactly a politically correct sentiment, but I know that Donald Trump doesn’t object to that.

Get yourself out there on Twitter. Think back to your favorite novel, and see what you can come up with. I’m not particularly funny, but I thought of “Fellowship of the Locker Room” and “Twelve Angry Tweets.”
I’m sure you could do better. Put your ideas on Twitter. I need to keep up the laughing until election day.
