The best of Twitter's Trump parody accounts
Donald Trump is on the verge of being inaugurated as the newest President of the US. In recent months, the president-elect has taken to social media site Twitter, like a kid to candy. And with over 20 million followers - it's evident that a lot of people are eager to hear what he has to say. His controversial musings have become so popular - they've inspired a slew of Trump parody accounts. These are some of our favourites.

Bridget Trump's Diary takes the president-elect's Twitter ramblings, and wittily teams them with literary heroiene Bridget Jones's neurotic diary entries.
The tweets span a number of topics that Trump has been vocal on - including his distrust of the media, his relationship with Russia's Vladimir Putin, and Meryl Streep's poignant Golden Globes speech.
Hate dishonest Meryl! Must center myself more. Will ask Pence about appropriate self-help book, possible Eastern-religion-based.

Waste money on: unaffordable health care , tax , planned parenthood, moving to Washington or exotic underwear
Why oh why doesn't anyone want to play at the inauguration?

What if I die alone & am found 3 weeks later half eaten by an Alsatian?
This parody account takes the mickey out of the US's newest president, and his general world views. Trump's own Twitter account is tagged in each hilarious tweet - though the president-elect himself hasn't yet responded to any of the (many) criticisms and insults.
I am so smart. Any real news comes out I don't like. Fake news! I call it fake news! Nobody lies like me. I'm the best. @realDonaldTrump

.@realDonaldTrump I am perpetuating the greatest fraud on everyone in the U.S. Getting my self elected. Great story. The best. I won it all.

Bigger turnout for Alec Baldwin in NYC than for my #TrumpInauguration concert in DC. Sad! https://t.co/NPkG6Zg153

In an effort to unite the country, I have already promised the Clintons I will invite them to my next wedding #TrumpInauguration

@MatureTrumpTwts: This alternative parody account envisions how a mature, more presidential Trump should tweet. @MatureTrumpTwts takes tweets from @realDonaldTrump and re-imagines them - so they sound more like a statesman tweeting his opinions, should.
As POTUS, Twitter will be just one tool of many I'll use to convey messages. 140 characters isn't enough for context & nuancing you deserve. https://t.co/hHfUS01jKf

Most inaugural speeches fade from memory. What you will remember is how I govern & the progress WE make under my leadership#willdomybest https://t.co/TqcxyePGr2

But let's face it - nothing can really trump Trump.
His personal Twitter account still remains the most entertaining. And he always seems to have the last word...
Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have fought me and lost so badly they just don't know what to do. Love!
