The internet roasts a photo of Donald Trump writing his inauguration speech

President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony is scheduled on Friday, so he teased his Twitter followers with a little behind-the-scenes photo of himself writing a speech at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, Mashable reports.

“Writing my inaugural address at the Winter White House, Mar-a-Lago, three weeks ago. Looking forward to Friday. #Inauguration,” Trump tweeted.

The staged photo and Trump’s cold, dead gaze sent the internet straight into “meme mode alpha,” where it was pointed out that Trump was actually holding Sharpie marker, which may or may not actually be closed.
