The words "Wrong Trump" trended on Twitter after former President Donald Trump announced the death of his ex-wife Ivana Trump on Thursday.
Donald Trump described Ivana as "a wonderful, beautiful, and amazing woman, who led a great and inspirational life" while announcing her death on his Truth Social platform. Ivana's death soon became the top trending topic on Twitter, although it trended alongside "Wrong Trump" and "Donald" due to tweets from those suggesting that they would have preferred the former president to die instead of his ex-wife.
"I see 'Wrong Trump' trending," sportswriter Jeff Pearlman tweeted. "Not gonna lie—I'd said that to my fam a few minutes earlier. I don't root for deaths. But exception can be made for an aspiring authoritarian with nary a decent bone in his body (who, for that matter, openly celebrated John McCain's death)."
