Congratulations President Donald Trump, you just played yourself.

On Wednesday, the president of the United States tweeted about a recent Gallup poll showing that 69 percent of Americans expect their financial situation to improve in the coming year.

“Nice!” he added.

While this is unremarkable to many people, it isn’t to those of us on Twitter who are always on the lookout for unknowing participants in the great game.

Go on Urban Dictionary, look up “69” and you’ll find that the number is shorthand for sex things.
