A pro-Trump TikTok trend is being relentlessly parodied by other TikTokers.
Pro-Trump Tiktok isn’t necessarily a huge swathe of the app – it skewers younger and often more progressive – but it definitely does exist. In the last two weeks, pro-Trump Tiktokers have been posting videos of themselves posing as a photo of Trump appears in the background.
It’s often accompanied by text saying that Trump was the only president to bring the whole world together, as well as a distinctive sound.
Some have pointed out that it’s more than a little weird.
@sandersmittens y’all are fuckin weird bruh #youreinacult#trumpcultmembers#trumplost#culttok#cult45

Other TikTok users have started to make fun of the trend too, which is starting to pick up traction.
Some users have just posted videos laughing at the trend.

Other users are a bit more creative – posting photos with celebrities like Nicki Minaj and Guy Fieri, or even Shrek.

The original sound - which seems to be a slowed down clip from a song by Chord Overstreet – seems to have come from a slideshow of Trump images that a user posted on TikTok only a few days ago.

It seems like the original videos were made by Trump fans after he left the White House, but the amount of parody videos seems to outnumber them by a lot now – with over 3005 videos posted using the original sound.
