Trumps all-caps Twitter warning to Irans president has already been turned into a meme
- On Sunday night, President Trump issued an all-caps warning to Iranian president Hassan Rouhani on Twitter.
- Trump wrote that if President Rouhani ever threatened the United States again, Rouhani would, "suffer consequences the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before."
- By Monday morning, the tweet had already been turned into a meme.
In a fiery all-caps Twitter rant, President Trump issued a warning to Iranian president Hassan Rouhani late Sunday night.
Trump challenged that if Rouhani were to ever threaten the United States again, Trump would retaliate with a force few throughout history have ever seen.
"To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS," Trump warned.
The tweet seems to be a heated response to Rouhani’s statement on Sunday that the United States going to war with Iran would be, "the mother of all wars."
"America should know that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace, and war with Iran is the mother of all wars," Rouhani said during a meeting with Iranian diplomats according to state-owned Islamic Republic News Agency.
While the tweet worried many Americans who feared the United States would end up going to war over Twitter, others found it utterly absurd, and by Monday morning the rant had already been turned into a meme.
The all-caps format of the tweet allowed people to direct famous movie and TV show rants to President Rouhani.

People also took the opportunity to tweet out song lyrics that clearly deserve the all-caps treatment.

Like most things in 2018, this new meme is hilarious and terrifying all at once. But you know what they say: It's all fun and games until someone declares war over Twitter.
