HBO Isn't A Fan Of Trump Using A 'Game Of Thrones' Meme In Response To The Redacted Mueller Report

Now that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report was made public, Donald Trump continued his victory lap over believing he was fully exonerated from charges of obstruction.

After convincing himself he was vindicated, he went right back to bashing the investigation, calling it "phony and fraudulent."

He went even further by latching onto the popularity of HBO's fantasy drama Game of Thrones by tweeting a meme of himself, signaling it was "Game Over."


Trump mimicked an advertisement for GoT, featuring an image with his back turned, with the words:

"No collusion. No obstruction. For the haters and the radical left democrats...Game Over."


HBO cautioned the president a second time, saying that the premium cable channel preferred to stay out of politics.

"Though we can understand the enthusiasm for 'Game of Thrones' now that the final season has arrived, we still prefer our intellectual property not be used for political purposes."

Last year, Trump used a meme inspired by GoT to promote his reinstating of all U.S. sanctions on Iran previously removed in 2015 under the nuclear deal agreed upon by P5+1 – the group of world powers that included the U.S., U.K., France, China, Russia, and Germany.

Trump tweeted "Sanctions are coming November 5," to which HBO responded:

"We were not aware of this messaging and would prefer our trademark not be misappropriated for political purposes."


The message never got to Trump.

Twitter relentlessly mocked Trump by re-purposing his feeble attempt at coming off as a champion.

One of the revelations from Mueller's report was Trump's reaction after hearing Mueller was appointed to the investigation.

When Jeff Sessions spilled the beans, Trump reportedly said:

"This is the end of my presidency. I'm f-cked."





The tired tagline got another makeover, and it was well-played.


The White House does need a serious comb-over.


The eighth and final season of Game of Thrones was anticipated to be the most exciting yet. This couldn't be any further from the truth.

We're hoping for many twists and turns with a satisfying outcome, because as far as we're concerned, the game is still on.

After President Donald Trump lashed out at late-night host Seth Meyers on Truth Social over the weekend and called him a "truly deranged lunatic," Meyers responded to Trump’s “ranting and raving” about him with a damning supercut on his program.

Trump apparently tuned in to Thursday night’s episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, where Meyers poked fun at the president’s complaints about Navy aircraft carriers using electromagnetic catapults instead of traditional steam-powered ones. Meyers joked that Trump "spends more time thinking about catapults than Wile E. Coyote."

Girl's Hilarious Reaction To Getting Divisive Candy For Halloween Caught On Doorbell Cam

In the '80s and '90s, kids were raised with the understanding that they got what they got, and they should say, "Thank you," for what they received. This was true for birthdays, holidays, and trick-or-treating on Halloween, even if they got candy they wanted to throw away the instant they turned the corner.

But kids today are much more communicative about what they like and don't like, and they can be brutal in their bluntness.

Speaking on The View, Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene spoke about sparring with House Speaker Mike Johnson over healthcare—and revealed that the GOP does not have any replacement for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) despite what Johnson and her fellow congressional conservatives tell the public.

Democrats have continued to reject Republicans’ proposed continuing resolution to keep the government open without considering an extension of the premium tax credit that helps subsidize health insurance for people earning between 100% and 400% of the federal poverty level.

People Share The Best Ways To Shut Down A Debate With A Flat Earther Family Member

The Flat Earth conspiracy theory is strictly a modern online movement, rumored to have begun as a prank, that gained momentum among people who mistrust authority through the power of social media.

There is a persistent myth that Europeans in the Middle Ages believed the Earth was flat. But that is a 19th-century fabrication to sell Columbus Day, not historical reality.
