US President Donald Trump has become a butt of jokes online after claiming that the American people "are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times, as opposed to once, with some internet users even poking fun at his eating habits.
Trump during a meeting with business leaders at the White House vowed to tackle the scourge of low-flush toilets.
He claimed that water regulations force Americans to flush multiple times after using the bathroom.
“You turn on the faucet and you don't get any water. They take a shower and water comes dripping out. Just dripping out, very quietly dripping out,” he said.
His remarks drew sharp reactions from internet users. The hashtags #ToiletTrump and #Toiletgate started trending on Twitter as memes and jokes poking fun at him flooded the micro-blogging site.
