Donald Trump is the meme-generating gift who keeps on giving.

On Wednesday, the president continued his knack for launching social media phenomena by tweeting a catchy new slogan — “All I want to do is #MAGA!” — in the midst of another attack on mainstream media.

“After reading the false reporting and even ferocious anger in some dying magazines, it makes me wonder, WHY?” POTUS began before concluding with a phrase that quickly went viral: “All I want to do is #MAGA!”

MAGA, of course, is the abbreviation of his campaign slogan “Make America Great Again” which he apparently now wants to elevate to a new verb.

“All I want to do is #MAGA!” almost immediately captured the public imagination, as internet users imagined it as lyrics to a song or “the worst summer jam of all time.”

Sheryl Crow’s “All I Wanna Do Is Have Some Fun” was quickly repurposed by Gideon Resnick, who re-wrote a new chorus ending “Until the sun comes up over Penn. avenue.”

Others, including Miriam Elder, re-set the phrase to Don Henley’s “All She Wants to Do Is Dance.”

Here are some of the other online responses.
