In a lighthearted and unexpected moment on social media, an Indian man found himself at the center of a viral exchange with former US President Donald Trump on X (formerly Twitter). Trump’s official account, which seems to send automated messages to users encouraging them to vote in the upcoming US elections, tagged the man, urging him to cast his vote for Trump in the November elections.
Automated Message Sparks Viral Moment
The post from Trump’s account read, “I’ll send you IMPORTANT ELECTION UPDATES for North Carolina. Make sure you are ready to VOTE FOR DONALD J. TRUMP by November 5th.” It appeared that the automated message had mistakenly targeted random users, including several individuals outside the United States, asking them to vote for Trump. Among them was an Indian citizen who, while amused, decided to clarify the error.
HAVE A LOOK AT THE VIRAL POST:
Thanks, but you will never be my President.
Kamala Harris will never be my President either.
Actually I am from India 😂 https://t.co/gKbkNYa18P

Indian User’s Witty Response Goes Viral
In a witty response, the Indian user replied, “Thanks, but you will never be my President. Kamala Harris will never be my President either. Actually, I am from India.” His reply quickly gained traction on social media, amassing over 41,000 views within hours.
The exchange left Indian users both puzzled and amused, as many were curious about why Trump’s campaign was targeting non-US citizens. The bizarre mix-up became a source of laughter, with many users joining in the fun.
Social Media Reacts to the Unusual Campaign Targeting
The viral post led to a flurry of reactions from other Indian users. One user humorously commented, “Donald Trump has tied up with Elon Musk for sending these unsolicited campaign messages. It’s common in India. Never thought that the US is as bad.” Others speculated on the nature of automated campaign messages, while some simply enjoyed the unusual scenario.
Another user wrote, “Wow!!! This is an honor. Erstwhile President and ‘may be future President’ of the US, has established contact with you.”
Trump’s Return to the Political Arena
As the 77-year-old Republican nominee gears up for his 2024 presidential run, he will be facing off against Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, an Indian-American. Trump, who lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, is once again rallying support, although this latest incident shows that his campaign may be casting its net a little too wide.
This light-hearted mishap has certainly brought some humor to the election season, even across borders.
