Donald Trump has been the president for two weeks now, and he is already screwing it up. His approval rating has hit a record low of 42 percent. He has been cranking out the executive orders without reading them, including the highly unconstitutional Muslim ban he talked about during the campaign.
His sinking ratings have prompted a lot of activity on Twitter, his favorite social media platform. The account @Trump_Regrets exists solely to make fun of people experiencing buyer’s remorse after having voted for Trump. The entire purpose of the account is to retweet tweets from regretful Trump voters.
Speaking of those sinking approval ratings, this poor guy is airing his embarrassment:
@POTUS @realDonaldTrump Sir, Your ratings, really? Though I supported you, I have to say you're an embarrassment.

And then there is that first realization that Trump really is like Hitler:
Forgive my language but how's the HELL is this different than what Hitler did to the Jews?PRESIDENT TRUMP,I regret my vote!!#MuslimBan

They didn’t realize he was nuts before? What seemed so evident to a lot of progressives obviously escaped the notice of his most ardent supporters:

Trump had horrible behavior all during the campaign. This also seemed to have escaped notice:

He isn’t making sense to her now? Did she listen to him during the campaign? We’re guessing NOT:
@realDonaldTrump you make no sense to me.. Each day I slowly regret my vote.. I really thought you could change this country for the better

We did some digging to find out who came up with this brainchild of an idea. The @Trump_Regrets Twitter account was started by Canadian student, Erica Baguma.
She said:
“I was shocked to see there were so many people feeling betrayed by him. I decided to keep track of all of it … It’s always increasing.”
“… I had this idea that they were … maybe not bigots, but sort of not totally informed. A lot of them are just extremely naive and thought he’s a good person, everything he’s been saying is just rhetoric. There’s no real one description.”
