Trump campaign tweets video of Trump as ‘Avengers’ villain Thanos
President Trump’s campaign tweeted a doctored clip of the president as Thanos, the villain in the Avengers film franchise.
The clip depicts Trump as Thanos saying “I am inevitable” before snapping his fingers, causing Democratic House leadership to disintegrate in the manner of the climax of “Infinity War,” during which the character dispatches several of the heroes, and half the world’s population, in a similar way.
{mosads}“House Democrats can push their sham impeachment all they want. President Trump’s re-election is,” the account tweeted.

Numerous people pointed out that in context, the line “I am inevitable” directly precedes Thanos’s defeat after an attempt at repeating the finger-snap is unsuccessful in “Endgame.”
Y’all know Thanos said that before he lost, right? https://t.co/hhDj51yzyj

Did you watch the movie??? This is the snap that doesn’t work because Iron Man stole the Infinity Stones moments before. https://t.co/Ot52aiB0yR

So you’re arguing that Trump is Thanos (“The Mad Titan”) who wants to kill half of all living things, but in the end winds up defeated and dying, taking all of his sycophantic followers down with him?
Great work, everyone. https://t.co/gFLPVch2An
