White House press secretary Sean Spicer has a personal Venmo account, and social media users are taking full advantage of the opportunity to troll him.
The press secretary’s Venmo feed was filling up with payment requests and donations from Venmo users as of Monday night, when somebody found his public account with his profile photo online. “Who? Weekly,” and entertainment news podcast, managed to get a screen grab of the hysterical trolling before his transaction history went private Tuesday morning.

Some of the ridiculous comments in Spicer’s Venmo feed included requests for him to reimburse them for the anxiety medication they needed because of the Trump administration, while others included donations for “gum,” “Dippin Dots,” and to “get ur hairline back.”
“Change that picture of yourself, dude. youre [sic.] like 90% forehead,” one user commented.
Other comments were more serious attacks on Spicer, and his higher-ups in the Trump administration:

Spicer has been taunted for a series of his personal qualities this week, including his receding hairline, his irritable speaking mannerisms (as mocked on Saturday Night Live this past weekend), and his infamous gum habit. The New York Magazine reports President Trump’s press secretary consumes on average 35 packs of chewing gum per day before noon.
