'THE BEST ECLIPSE EVER!': Trump retweeted a meme of himself 'eclipsing' Obama

President Donald Trump retweeted a meme of himself "eclipsing" former President Barack Obama on Thursday morning.

The meme shows four images in which a color photo of a smiling Trump passes over a black-and-white picture of Obama. The text at the bottom says, "THE BEST ECLIPSE EVER!"

The original tweet came from Jerry Travone, a self-proclaimed "YouTube Actor and Political Junkie." Travone also identifies himself as a "Proud Trump supporter and pushback against liberalism."

Much of the US, including Trump, was gripped by Monday's solar eclipse.

The original tweet is below:
