Donald Trump said he may sue the Twitter user who tricked him into retweeting the image of Fred and Rose West
Donald Trump shared the spoof message that claimed the pair looked at him as a “big inspiration” and asked him to “RT for their memory”.
Later the billionaire tweeted: “I guess this teaches you not to be nice or trusting.”
Fred West was charged with a dozen murders in Gloucester but killed himself before the trial in 1995.
Rose West was convicted of 10 murders – many at the couple’s home in Gloucester – and jailed for life. She was told when she was sentenced in 1995 that she should never be released.
Donald Trump was contacted by the Twitter user early on Monday, September 29, urging him to re-tweet the image of the Wests.
He later deleted the message after it was widely shared on the social media site.
Addressing the incident, Donald Trump later tweeted: “Some jerk fraudulently tweeted that his parents said I was a big inspiration to them + pls RT-out of kindness I retweeted. Maybe I’ll sue.
“I thought I was being nice to somebody re their parents. I guess this teaches you not to be nice or trusting. Sad!”
