Donald Trump, thank you for this wonderful, wonderful gift. It was so thoughtful of you! And we didn't get you anything! How rude of us. But thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

Thank you for announcing that you are running for President, because now the Internet has so much ammunition. If mocking was a power source, your campaign announcement could power New York City for 250 years.

It's like Twitter was made just for this moment. A moment where a celebrity(?) with a terrible haircut and a face the color of a ripe tangerine says that he thinks he's the best person to run the United States of America. This is the same guy who with 100 percent certainty thought Barack Obama was not born in the U.S. So yeah, Twitter is loving you right now.

Seriously, Mr. Trump. We can't thank you enough for providing enough entertainment to last us until the 2016 election. You are truly a gift sent from the Internet gods. Even celebrities who rarely go on Twitter hopped on to join in on the Trump-bashing. 'Tis a beautiful day for social media!

Thanks again, Don! We really appreciate this. 

Love, 

Everyone on the Internet
