The account, @gIamourizes, had changed its display name to read “F— Donald Trump” Wednesday morning following Trump’s retweet of a seemingly innocuous reply indicating support for the president.

“My husband a New York City firefighter for 15 years will be voting Trump 2020 all the way!!” read a tweet from the account in reply to conservative commentator Dan Bongino. The president retweeted the post.

The account changed its name and profile image shortly after Trump’s retweet. It now has an image of the campaign logo of Sen.

White House bid.

The account owner later tweeted that he had set up the account to prove that the president was “dumb enough to” retweet any praise.

“What a great morning. In all seriousness, our president is an awful, hateful human being who wants nothing more than to keep the status quo and hatred prevalent in our country when we should be pushing forward with the rest of the world towards progress and change,” wrote the Twitter user in the account’s only two tweets that did not exist as replies to Trump or other conservatives.

“For the record this account is neither a bot nor a hack, every single tweet has been legitimate,” the anonymous account continued. “I just am the type of committed idiot who thought over the past 2 years the President was surely dumb enough to RT literally any praising response to him.”

An account with a similar Twitter handle and the display name “lana del fenty” complained after the president’s retweet, saying that the @gIamourizes account, which was made in September 2017, had copied her account in an attempt to lure the president into retweeting after the “del fenty” account had been retweeted by Trump.

“Ever since i got a retweet from the president, this person (@giamourizes) created an account, pretended to be me at first, & started tweeting support to him,” wrote @Glamourizes. “now that the president has retweeted them, they’re now bashing him. that’s not me lol. i actually support trump.”
