President Donald Trump’s business boasts in his book The Art of the Deal returned to haunt him after the GOP failed to repeal Obamacare and replace it with his Trumpcare health plan Friday. And the irony was not lost on many social media users, who quickly turned the title into hilarious memes.
To illustrate the GOP’s bill failure, memesters and commentators offered up new titles, such as “The Art of the Fail,” “The Art of the Bad Deal,” “The Art of the Ordeal,” “The Art of Repeal,” “The Fart of the Deal,” and even “The Shart of the Deal.” And that doesn’t begin to cover the comments...

The Art of the Deal
— Seth (@spllck) March 24, 2017
1. Don’t learn abt the deal
2. Take someone else’s deal
3. Let 3rd party offer worse deal
4. Beg
5. Give up on the deal
Welp, no need to ever buy a copy of The Art Of The Deal, because we just witnessed the book's entire premise fail in real time.

The Shart of the Deal

Actor Jim Carrey went way out on a limb to post the most memorable dig, with visual that earned him lots of Twitter admonishments to “have some respect” for the president.
