President Donald Trump is going to have a long and hard four years in office. Barely hours after getting inaugurated, new controversy has developed over him allegedly copying his celebratory cake after President Barack Obama‘s 2013 one.
Celebrity chef Duff Goldman went to Twitter last night (January 20) with the mouth-watering revelation.
The cake on the left is the one I made for President Obama's inauguration 4 years ago. The one on the right is Trumps. I didn't make it. 🤔 pic.twitter.com/qJXpCfPhii

The speculation has already sparked widespread national coverage.
Allegations of plagiarism have dogged people close to President Donald Trump for months, but could the Trump administration have kicked off its tenure by plagiarizing … a cake? That’s what celebrity baker Duff Goldman claimed Friday night, after Trump and Vice President Mike Pence cut an elaborate, multi-tiered cake at the Salute To Our Armed Services Inaugural Ball.

Along with news publications, social media has already made the cake drama into a viral discussion.
The post has been retweeted more than 31,000 times and liked more than 47,000 times since it was posted Friday night. Twitter users seemed to agree with the Ace of Cakes star, one writing that ‘it’s an exact ripoff’ and another suggested that ‘Melania had made the cake’. (Daily Mail UK)
Last night, musicians T.I. and Tyrese threw some shade at Donald Trump’s inauguration attendee turnout.
