Almost immediately after, tweets calling for the president’s death were posted using the hashtag #wrongtrump, which quickly became the number four trending topic on the website.

“Dear Grim Reaper, You took the #wrongtrump,” wrote Twitter user @TalbertSwan, whose account bio claims he’s a pastor and NAACP president.

Talbert’s account had been reportedly permanently banned “for hateful conduct” in 2019, masslive.com reported.

Some users claimed the president, who has been in New York over the weekend to visit his brother, only came to spend “his time golfing and tweeting.”

“He doesn’t give a damn about a brother, sister, parent, etc. [Trump] only cares about himself,” wrote Twitter user @president_spurs, a username also created to mock Donald Trump.

David Leavitt, a controversial Twitter personality who bills himself as a “journalist” in his bio, asked: "what did [Trump] promise the devil for the Grim Reaper to take the #wrongtrump ???”

Other users were quick to laugh at the disturbing #wrontrump jokes and made excuses for them as “dark humor.”

“#wrongtrump is what I consider ‘dark humor, very useful in keeping our spirits up in the face of such atrociousness. Staying mindful not to become what we fight: hateful, fearful, vindictive, name-calling," wrote Twitter user @GaiaGirl.

But conservatives were quick slam the “vile” tweets, pointing out that the GOP never tweeted similar threats to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg or the late John Lewis who had been recently hospitalized.

“If a conservative tweeted stuff like #wrongtrump about John Lewis or some other Dem politician Twitter would instaban them,” one user wrote.

Erroll Webber, a black Republican running for congress in California, slammed the disgusting comments.

“Remember all the conservatives wishing death to Obama and his family for eight years? No, you don’t. Because it never happened,” Webber wrote.

“This #WrongTrump hashtag is patently disgusting.”
