Funny Tweets From Around the World About President Trump
The Rest of the World Has a Lot to Say About the US Election on Twitter
While our friends in the USA sleep on the news that Donald Trump will be president, people around the world have been taking to social media to voice their feelings on the somewhat unexpected victory. Fellow Brits have, of course, compared the emotional turmoil many Americans now feel to what we went through in June following the Brexit vote. Australians looked on in astonishment (and came up with plenty of mildly inappropriate jokes), and everyone's talking about moving to Canada. While we wait for the fallout of such a divisive candidate making it to office, perhaps these tweets might raise a much-needed smile.

Donald & Melania sit breathlessly on the back seat of the bus, smile at each other then turn their heads away. Realisation sets in. Credits.

Isn't there some kind of an emergency clause that can be invoked that allows American folks to parachute Justin Trudeau in? #USElection2016
