Donald Trump's former White House press secretary, Sean Spicer, has been eliminated from Dancing with the Stars, the American equivalent of Strictly Come Dancing.
As you can imagine, Spicer wasn't exactly the most graceful person to ever step foot on a dance floor but he did provide the world with some rather glorious memes in his short stay on the show.
Spicer's departure was met with sadness by the president who tweeted how proud he was of his friend for being able to adequately dance the Paso Doble.
As far as weird Trump tweets go this is fairly minor but he did do something else quite odd on Twitter last night, something that's largely unforeseen on the president's Twitter account.
Eagle-eyed observers noticed that a tweet from Trump encouraging people to vote for Spicer has now mysteriously disappeared.
Before the show started he wrote:
Vote for Sean Spicer on Dancing with the Stars.
He is a great and very loyal guy who is working very hard.
He is in the quarterfinals - all the way with Sean.

Now, Trump has tweeted a lot of bad and quite frankly unforgivable things in his time but he rarely deletes anything, apart from when it has a typo or something embarrassing.
For example here a few tweets of his that a still on the website.
With this in mind, people have been quick to mock the president for this very strange decision on social media.
