Sarah Sanders shared a photo of President Trump on Friday that's generating numerous social media reactions.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders' seemingly innocuous tweet about President Trump has prompted an intense reaction on social media.
On Friday, she tweeted a photo of him sitting in a leather chair and added the comment: "@POTUS sits in Winston Churchill's chair as a guest of Prime Minister [Theresa] May at Chequers."
Chequers is the U.K. leader's country residence and was the site for various events with Trump that day.
Sanders' post drew a strong response, with some condemning any comparison between the two men. One person wrote, "He thinks he's Churchill, except that Churchill fought Nazis."
"The only thing Trump has in common with Churchill is an alliance with Russia," someone else wrote. "Difference is Churchill did it to destroy the Nazis, and Trump did it to destroy America."
Meanwhile, another critic tweeted, in part: "He probably has no clue who Churchill was."
However, a number of Trump supporters defended the president, with one of them writing: "Churchill would be proud just as Mr.Trump is faced with and totally defeating obstacles so did Mr.Churchhill in his day. He would [have] loved our President."
"History will show that Trump was the Churchill of our time for our country," noted another commenter.
Trump is said to be a fan of Churchill who was Britain's Prime Minister during the mid-20th century. Among other achievements, he has been credited with leading the country to victory during WWII.
