Trump's fear and hatred of sharks is pretty well-documented – the man has been made fun of a fair amount over it.

Keen to bring himself yet more mockery, the president retweeted an account called, "Trump But About Sharks" whose entire purpose is to make fun of Trump for his fear.

While he seems to have undone the retweet now, people still noticed.

One Twitter user said, "Trump is like a kid at a birthday party, blindfolded and broomstick in hand, swinging away at a piñata five hours after the party ended."

While another said,

Tomorrow his team will state that it was intentional because “sharks kill 500 million people every year” and are more deadly than all guns, and need to be banned.

His supporters will then believe that Biden, Warren, Clinton, AOC, etc are sharks in human suits.

Another added: "Trump has gone full-blown whackadoodle. Time for the "I love me" jacket."

While all that may seem pretty ridiculous, looking at the presidency to this point, it's starting to seem more and more likely...
