On September 29, the President of the United States, Donald Trump shared a tweet from a bot account. The US President had retweeted more than a dozen tweets in support of the conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin on his spat with Fox News anchor Ed Henry. In a bizarre series of events, an adult film star Stormy Daniels alleged that President Trump liked watching TV shows related to sharks and that he is terrified of them. After the Galeophobia came out to the public, a bot account was created which changes a few words in his tweets to the word, 'sharks'. The original tweet had, 'Fake news' instead of 'Pro Shark'.
'Trump's pro-shark account'
This Twitter account that was created on February 2018 was entirely about sharks after President Trump reportedly claimed that he is scared of them. The Twitter users call these posts hilarious as the tweets are shared after adding words like beach, surfing, sharks and beach lovers. People are also seen taking part in the conversation and one of them even said that "you're a legend”, while addressing the anonymous manager. On September 28, Donald Trump initially tweeted “Make America great again” and this bot account retweeted it saying, 'Make the Beach great again'. The posts about the Democrats by the President are often changed to 'Shark Lovers'.
The Fake News Media wants to stay as far away as possible from the Ukraine and China deals made by the Bidens. A Corrupt Media is so bad for our Country! In actuality, the Media may be even more Corrupt than the Bidens, which is hard to do!

The spat between the hosts
Host Ed Henry, on Fox & Friends, had asked the radio presenter Mark Levin if he thought that Donald Trump's phone call with the Ukranian President to inquire about former Vice President, Joe Biden's son was anything “illegal” which has also lead to the House of Commons launch an impeachment inquiry. To this question, the conservative radio host reacted angrily. This further impressed President Trump who retweeted more than 15 tweets about this conversation. Most of them, supporting Mark levin and his reaction in support with the President's statement of denying any 'wrongdoing'.
