If you’re looking to get called a “fat pig,” “slob,” “loser,” or maybe even a “hater” by GOP nominee Donald Trump, your search stops now. 

On Thursday, the presumptive Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, launched a Facebook app called Trump Yourself. The platform overlays various insults Trump has used against women, Muslims, undocumented immigrants, people who doubt his success, and more, and it drapes them over your profile picture. 

The insults available go as far back as 1997 and are as recent as a Trump tweet in May 2016. Many of the available filters highlight Trump’s more contentious comments, including “If you need Viagra, you’re probably with the wrong girl,” and “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. …. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.”

Teddy Goff, a member of the Clinton campaign, tweeted that the site was just “too darn popular.” An overflow of people hoping to get insults hurled at them reportedly caused the Facebook page to temporarily crash Thursday afternoon. 

Looks like everyone wants to Trump themselves.

Trump has yet to post a mean tweet about Clinton’s new online application, but don’t worry, it’s not too late. The newly elected GOP nominee is scheduled to speak to the nation Thursday night at the Republican National Convention. We’re sure he won’t disappoint.
