Donald Trump may have won the election, but Metta World Peace won Election Day Twitter.
On Tuesday, Lakers forward World Peace started his social media binge by tweeting the hashtag #ifmettawaspresident. He then posted about decisions he would make if he became president.

On Wednesday, the morning after Donald Trump's stunning victory over Hillary Clinton, World Peace stopped with the jokes. He took on a serious, inspirational tone.
