Trump Demands Facebook Investigate Why Obama’s Post Got So Many Likes

WASHINGTON —A furious Donald J. Trump has demanded that Facebook investigate why a status update posted by former President Barack Obama on Monday has received so many likes.

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday morning, Trump said that the more than eight hundred and fifty thousand likes that Obama’s post had garnered as of Tuesday night were “phony,” and called the seeming popularity of the post a “rigged hoax.”

“There is absolutely no way that eight hundred and fifty thousand people liked Obama’s post,” he said. “I know a lot of people, and absolutely none of them like Obama.”

Trump said that, in addition to investigating Obama’s likes, he was demanding that Facebook remove several hundred thousand of Obama’s likes and “give them to me instead.”

Calling the former President’s Facebook post “as long and boring as a book,” Trump slammed Obama for being “terrible at social media, which is the most important part of a President’s job.”

Trump speaks out on Sean Spicer joining 'Dancing with the Stars': 'He will do great'

One day after it was revealed that Sean Spicer will be competing on the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Stars," President Trump spoke out about the casting decision.

Trump took to Twitter Thursday to praise his former White House press secretary, writing: "Just heard that Sean Spicer will be on 'Dancing with the Stars.' He will do great. A terrific person who loves our Country dearly!"

ABC announced Wednesday that Spicer will compete on Season 28 of “DWTS” alongside Christie Brinkley, "The Bachelorette" Hannah Brown, country singer Lauren Alaina, "Dawson's Creek" star James Van Der Beek, NFL legend Ray Lewis, former Fifth Harmony singer Ally Brooke, NBA star and Khloe Kardashian's ex-husband Lamar Odom, "Kenan and Kel" star Kel Mitchell, former Supremes singer Mary Wilson and "The Office" star Kate Flannery.

Following the reveal, Spicer took to Twitter to express his excitement about joining the show. "It’s time to have some fun. Excited to join a great cast and show @DancingABC," he wrote.

However, not everyone seemed as thrilled with Spicer's casting including, one of the show's co-hosts, Tom Bergeron.

Bergeron took to social media on Wednesday to post a lengthy statement explaining his feelings about which "celebrities" will be featured on Season 28 of the hit reality competition series, in particular referring to how Spicer is a contestant.

He wrote how he hoped the new season “would be a joyful respite from our exhausting political climate and free of inevitably divisive bookings from ANY party affiliations.”

In response to Bergeron's post, "DWTS" executive producer, Andrew Llinares, told Fox News in a statement on Wednesday: "We’ve got a great and diverse cast. We are excited about the season."

I had to check. And, honestly, the second story you posted seemed weirder than the first. Stranger than fiction, and all that.
