Trump sparks social media blitz by tweeting, 'All I want to do is #MAGA!'
One of President Trump’s Wednesday tweets became a social media sensation for its inclusion of the line, “All I want to do is #MAGA!”
A number of people saw lyrical potential there, or were reminded of various songs, most notably “All I Wanna Do (Is Have Some Fun)” by Sheryl Crow.
Trump’s tweet came amid yet another complaint about the supposedly “false reporting” in the media. He fumed about the “ferocious anger in some dying magazines” without naming the publications, and asked broadly, “WHY?”
After reading the false reporting and even ferocious anger in some dying magazines, it makes me wonder, WHY? All I want to do is #MAGA!

Trump’s complaint came in between tweets about Tropical Storm Harvey, which is continuing to devastate Texas, and his upcoming visit to Missouri, where he is set to discuss tax reform. But it was the “#MAGA” tweet that sparked the musical mockery.
All I want to do is MAGA some
I got a feelin I'm not the only one
All I want to do is MAGA some

All I Want To Do Is #MAGA sounds like something a wedding DJ would play with the hopes that someone, anyone, will come to the dance floor

If you’re not reading “All i want to do is MAGA” to the tune of “all she wants to do is dance” then I don’t know what to tell you.

All I Wanna Do (is MAGA)
If It Makes You Happy (MAGA)

On a more serious note, critics questioned the self-pity as Harvey makes a second landfall along the Texas-Louisiana border.
Man. The hardships this guy faces. Can't even imagine anything anyone could go through that could be worse. Like, I don't know, a hurricane. https://t.co/XpBz9Oso5R

It's always worth remembering in the midst of Hurricane Harvey, the only victim that Trump truly cares about is Trump himself https://t.co/nKyMZ8t0av

Of all the qualities of Trump that are un-Presidential, the narcissistic self-pity is the worst. He's worried about his press clips??? https://t.co/jASLPZpau8

There is literally a hurricane happening right now. People are dying. Some losing everything they have.
And Trump feels sorry for HIMSELF. https://t.co/w3IhCE5Fkt
