It may feel like roughly 83 years ago, but cast your mind back to 2013. Kate and Wills welcomed their first son, George. Argo won Best Picture at the Oscars. Get Lucky and Blurred Lines owned the airwaves.
And future President Donald Trump was at home, tweeting about the break-up of Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth.
Things truly do not change.
A tweet from the sitting POTUS from 19 September 2013 has begun circulating again after Miley and Liam announced that their marriage was over, and it reminds us that before Trump was announcing policies and promoting the Wall on Twitter, he was tweeting about celebrity couples.
Miley and Liam had been dating since 2009 when Liam popped the question to the Wrecking Ball singer in 2012.
But sadly, a year later, they ended their engagement (although they reunited in 2016) – and apparently, Trump was very Team Miley.
In a tweet that is still live on the Twitter account of, we stress, the President of the United States, he wrote: ‘@MileyCyrus – don’t worry about Liam. You can do much better and you have plenty of time—remain strong!’
Of course, Trump didn’t just save his commentary for Miley and Liam.
He also famously called out Kristen Stewart after she was pictured kissing director Rupert Sanders while she was dating Robert Pattinson.
In 2012, Trump tweeted: ‘Robert Pattinson should not take back Kristen Stewart. She cheated on him like a dog & will do it again — just watch. He can do much better!’
He later wrote: ‘Look, it doesn’t matter– the relationship will never be the same. It is permanently broken.
‘Everyone knows I am right that Robert Pattinson should dump Kristen Stewart. In a couple of years, he will thank me. Be smart, Robert.’
Kristen addressed Trump’s bizarre obsession with her when she hosted Saturday Night Live in 2017 – coming out at the same time.
The Twilight actress said: ‘I’m a little nervous to be hosting because I know the president’s probably watching, and I don’t think he likes me that much So, yeah, that’s crazy, right?
‘The president is not a huge fan of me. But that is so okay. And Donald, if you didn’t like me then you probably really aren’t going to like me now, because I’m hosting SNL and I’m, like, so gay, dude.’
Miley previously threatened to leave the US if Trump became president – so we doubt she’s too happy with his old tweets, even if they are supporting her.
Let’s see if there’s a 2019 update…
