Trump's odd 9/11 fist pumping started a Photoshop battle, obviously

Weird thing to do, but at least we'll have the memes.

Who knows why Donald Trump did a double fist pump before a 9/11 memorial.

The president has been criticized for the move before a service remembering the terrorist attack in Pennsylvania, which goes without saying, is a period for solemn reflection.

But anyway, here he was looking pumped.

While we scratched our heads, Twitter user Rob Sheridan created a cut-out of Trump with a transparent background, perfect fodder for people to Photoshop and do their "absolute worst."

And Photoshop they did. Trump was placed into a whole bunch of other situations, like Russian President Vladimir Putin riding him like a horse. How apt.
