Donald Trump Tweeted About Diwali and Forgot Hindus, Got Massively Trolled
You hate him or love him but you certainly can’t ignore him. This is Donald Trump for you, folks! No matter what he does, he lands himself in trouble. He did it again, this time while wishing Diwali.
As you all know, Diwali was celebrated all over the world on November 7. It looks like American President also lit up a diya in the White House. Mr. President took to Twitter to share a picture with a caption that reads,
“Today, we gathered for Diwali, a holiday observed by Buddhists, Sikhs, and Jains throughout the United States & around the world. Hundreds of millions of people have gathered with family & friends to light the Diya and to mark the beginning of a New Year.”

What was he thinking? How can he forget Hindus, especially when Diwali is the biggest festival of Hindus? In the pictures, you can see Trump surrounded by some Indians, as he lit up the lamp. I’m literally confused and speechless.
As usual, netizens slammed Donald Trump in the most hilarious way possible and reminded him of his mistakes loud and clear. Check out some of the top comments down below.

Even Wikipedia could have helped "Diwali is celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and Newar Buddhists, although for each faith it marks different historical events and stories, but nonetheless the festival represents the same symbolic victory of light over darkness"
