Ever noticed something strange about President Donald Trump’s tweets? Probably.

Josh Patten, a writer for US TV show Saturday Night Live, recently came to the realisation that many of them read like text messages, warranting a friendly reply.

So he began responding to Trump’s tweets as if they were direct messages from the President to him, and the results are hilarious - especially because many of them don’t seem that odd.

The pair have had quite the (unknowing) chat online.

They’ve talked about food

I will be having lunch at the White House today with Republican Senators concerning healthcare. They MUST keep their promise to America!

They’ve laughed

The Senate must go to a 51 vote majority instead of current 60 votes. Even parts of full Repeal need 60. 8 Dems control Senate. Crazy!

You’ll never read Trump’s tweets in the same way again.
