Another day, another conservative getting self-owned on social media.

This time around it's Ohio Republican Representative and accused sexual assault enabler Jim Jordan, one of former Republican President Donald Trump's most ardent supporters.

So ardent, in fact, that he posted a one-word tweet adulating the former President. So Twitter did what it does best—turned it into a meme and a Twitter game.

It all began when Jordan tweeted the following:

Just, "Trump." Apropos of nothing. No context, no commentary, just: "Trump." Okay then!

Now, to be fair, this is a whole lot better than some of the other stuff Jordan has been saying lately, like blaming Democratic President Joe Biden for gas prices (over which the President has almost no control, which is why gas prices have soared all over the world, not just the United States).

Or like when he said a couple weeks ago that he agrees with former President Trump that campaign aides to his 2016 election opponent, former Democratic Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, should be executed.

And, of course, there's the recent trove of incriminating information about Jordan's lengthy phone call with Trump on the morning of January 6. (Wonder what they talked about? Probably just sports or whatever.)

So in the grand scheme of things, a weird, sort of pathetic, definitely sycophantic tweet cheering for Trump is probably the least of our worries when it comes to Jim Jordan. But you know Twitter wasn't about to let it go.

Instead, they used Jordan's brown-nosing tweet as a sort of Jeopardy-style prompt to take digs at Trump, and a roast of the former President quickly ensued.










Jordan seems to be unfazed by his face plant and has been hard at work posting tweet after tweet of disinformation about all sorts of things. But his last Twitter face-plant was only two days before this one, so just give him time.

Sometimes, in an effort to improve our lives in some capacity requires us to make a significant dent in our bank account.

Even though it might be yogurt for dinner for a few weeks after, we still feel good about our expensive purchases when we see the difference a high-powered washing machine makes, or feel the cool air from our upgraded air conditioner.

Man Goes Viral After 3D-Printing A 6-Pound Phone Case To Combat Screen Addiction

Many Millennials will remember back in the nineties as the last of the "latchkey kids" who were prominently babysat by their televisions, and the commercials that rolled out, made popular on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, promoting kids to go play outside instead of watching TV all day.

Now in 2025, videos on Instagram and TikTok encouraging people to "pause their scroll" and to "put down their phones" are becoming more common and popular, because people are realizing how detrimental our increasing screen time is to our emotional, physical, and psychological health.

Woman Sparks Heated Debate After Encouraging People To Smile At Walmart Greeters

There's an old saying that goes, "It costs nothing to be kind."

Smiling at a stranger, saying hi back to a young and socialable child, holding a door for someone, and maybe even exchanging a pleasantry or two at the checkout line costs nothing more than a few words passing our lips and showing a little kindness.
