Dungeons & Donalds Twitter Account
Back in May of 2016, “inspired” by Donald Trump’s infamous Trump Tower Taco Bowl image, I accidentally created a brief internet sensation. Running on the premise that Donald Trump would make an awful D&D Dungeon Master, I created a Twitter account to imagine that reality. After being Retweeted by several prominent members of the D&D online community, and several celebrities (comedian Patton Oswald and director Edger Wright, for example), it was picked up by the media. Below are some of the online articles about it.
Unfortunately, Trump won the election, and it’s sort of become my own personal purgatory. Someday, I’ll be able to retire the account. But, until then, I like to imagine I still bring a little joy to the accounts 38.5K followers.
