Meredith McIver is the speech writer who took responsibility for Melania Trump's plagiarism (you may have heard about it?).

And if you'd like some appetizer Trump memes before you get started, now would be the time.

Some of these are even more tremendous than Donald Trump Memes. What a time to be alive. Big times up ahead...

Yesterday Trump tweeted a photo of himself hard at work on his inauguration speech and the internet has been having a field day with it.

'What's Donald Drawing' definitely has the potential to catch on.

Get More Trump Memes that are simply tremendous, people tell me how amazing these memes are all the time.

During a meeting to discuss Syria, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was photographed assertively pointing a finger at Donald Trump. Trump later tweeted the photo with the caption, "Nervous Nancy's unhinged meltdown!" the photo has inspired a whole host of memes from every political angle. 

Whether you're a Trump supporter or a Pelosi fan, we think you'll find these trending memes amusing. Or maybe you hate both of them equally! That's certainly an option too!
