US President Trump reacting to the tragic event, posted a tweet and wrote, “Kobe Bryant, despite being one of the truly great basketball players of all time, was just getting started in life.

Obama had also expressed grief over the sudden demise of NBA superstar Bryant in a heartfelt tweet. His tweet read:
Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act. To lose Gianna is even more heartbreaking to us as parents. Michelle and I send love and prayers to Vanessa and the entire Bryant family on an unthinkable day.

But soon after Trump posted the tweet, Twitter users and mostly Barack Obama’s fans couldn’t help but notice the similarities between his and Obama’s tweet. In fact, several users pointed out that Trump had basically just paraphrased what Obama had written.
“Dude all you did was rewrite Obama’s tweet. Jealous much,” a user wrote while sharing the screenshot of Obama’s tweet.
