Donald Trump’s inauguration made quite a splash with the pubic. Or at least with users of porn site RedTube.

RedTube released its traffic data for Friday — when Trump was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States — on Monday, revealing some intriguing patterns.

For Friday, RedTube reported, searches on the site for “golden showers” were up by 50 percent.

If you’re looking for an explanation but coming up dry, allow us to back up and let fly: Earlier this month, BuzzFeed reported that a dossier containing “explosive — but unverified” allegations had been making the rounds.

Among the allegations: That Trump, while on a visit to Russia, rented “the presidential suite of the Ritz Carlton Hotel, where he knew President and Mrs OBAMA (whom he hated) had stayed on one of their official trips to Russia, and defiling the bed where they had slept by employing a number of prostitutes to perform a ‘golden showers’ (urination) in front of him.”

Trump denied the claims, but apparently he wasn’t able to completely wash his hands of them, the RedTube data suggests.

Among other search terms that RedTube saw a spike for on inauguration day: Searches for newly minted First Lady Melania Trump surged by 970 percent, while searches for The Donald’s daughters, Ivanka and Tiffany, jumped 390 and 379 percent, respectively.

As the new Leader of the Free World might say, “Yuuge.”

Throughout inauguration day, RedTube said, traffic dropped off by 13 percent, compared to a relatively meager 9 percent during the 2009 inauguration of Barack Obama.
