Trump falls for Twitter prank, retweets photo of serial killers

Donald Trump may be a hardened veteran in the boardroom, but the billionaire real-estate mogul looked like a complete Twitter amateur Monday when he mistakenly shared a picture of British serial killers Fred and Rose West.

Trump is an avid Twitter user and acknowledges his fans and critics on a daily basis. So when Philip Bradbury, whose Twitter handle is @feckhead, asked the tycoon to tweet a picture of his deceased parents because they were huge fans, Trump obliged.

But the picture wasn’t of Bradbury’s parents — it was of Fred and Rose, the married couple accused of torturing, raping and murdering numerous victims inside their Gloucester home.

“Some jerk fraudulently tweeted that his parents said I was a big inspiration to them + pls RT — out of kidness I retweeted. Maybe I’ll sue,” Trump later tweeted.
