That Obama Eclipse Meme Guy Trump Retweeted? Just Lost His T-Shirt Store Over Tweet Complaining About Jews
‘We Did That Purposely Since You Hate Jews’ Company Says
President Donald Trump Thursday morning stunned many across America when he retweeted a ridiculous, idiotic, and some say racist meme posted by a Twitter user who posted a tweet complaining about Jews.
Â
Trump retweeting the meme proved that everything Trump does is because of Barack Obama, but it also proved that an online t-shirt company is unwilling to put up with people who “hate Jews.”
Jerry Travone is the person who tweeted the eclipse meme to President Trump, who then retweeted it.
Raw Story reports Travone, as MSNBC’s “The Last Word” producer Kyle Griffin noted, had recently posted a tweet about Jews.

Twitter user David Henry also noticed, and asked OneHourTees why they were doing business with Travone.
Hey @OneHourTees why dose Jerry have a store with you guys when he keeps slingin’ hate speech around? pic.twitter.com/glqHl7PcCz

Henry got a quick response:
He doesn’t anymore. Thanks for bringing it my attention.

OneHourTees, which runs ProWrestlerTees, moved quickly, and Travone thought he had been hacked.
So I had my account hacked and messed with my @ProWrestlerTees link .

He wasn’t. OneHourTees made that clear, and why:
It wasn’t hacked. We did that purposely since you hate Jews.

Later, Travone posted a video insisting he’s incredibly tolerant, as he blasted MSNBC and liberals as being intolerant.
“Let me tell you something, MSNBC. Were not putting up with that crap. We’re tolerant. We’re the tolerant ones,” he says. “Not you liberals.”
