The youngest of the Trump siblings, Robert Trump reportedly was hospitalized in the intensive care unit for several days in June
Donald Trump once described his younger brother as “much quieter and easygoing than I am,” and “the only guy in my life whom I ever call ‘honey.’”
And now, in response to the younger Trump’s passing, “wrong Trump” is trending on Twitter.
Take a look at some of the responses:
Wrong Trump. Here's the right one…you can get him with your lighting bolts at the golf course next time…plenty of chances since he's there every weekend while the rest of us are dying. In fact, he was golfing today while his own blood brother died. pic.twitter.com/JVQSpLDDDC

The wrong Trump died. I don't care how mean that is, it's doesn't come close to Trump's meanest and the damage and pain he causes. It would literally save a ton of lives and trillions if he droped off the perch.

If anyone needed more proof in 2020 that god is not real, the wrong Trump has died.
On the bright side, it was the younger one so the other's days must be limited. @realDonaldTrump, tick tock. pic.twitter.com/9NM63EAe6S

Now, yeah, that’s pretty morose. I personally would never tweet this. And it seems like the right is jumping on the hashtag as evidence that people on the left are awful:
Thousands of Leftists are taking to Twitter tonight to say that the “wrong Trump” passed away.
This tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about the Left in these most troubling times.
The world we live in is a sad place. Will we see Democrats speak out against this?

The fact that “The Wrong Trump” is trending after the President‘s brother died tells you everything you need to know about the left.
They don’t care about people—they only care about power.
Pray for the president and his family.

When Hillary Clinton's brother passed I offered prayers. When Rep. John Lewis and Elijah Cummings passed I offered prayers.
When Robert Trump dies people trend "Wrong Trump." Sad.

Unbelievably disgusting that “wrong Trump” is trending when the President’s close brother Robert Trump just passed away today.
This is the vile shameless Left who’s souls have been eaten away by their master, Satan.
Prayers up for @realDonaldTrump https://t.co/UacegcpKoZ

All this said, Trump was golfing today…so…what do you think??
The fact that @realDonaldTrump @POTUS was golfing today with Jay Feely, instead of being with his brother and “best friend” on his death bed tells you everything you need to know about Donald Trump.
Rest In Peace, Robert Trump. pic.twitter.com/cdmWhIMEce
