US President Donald Trump recently displayed a bizarre reaction to a pesky fly during a rally speech.

Donald Trump was in New Mexico on Monday evening, giving a speech at a campaign rally, when towards the end a fly circling around him caught his attention.

After ineffectually swatting at the persistent insect a few times, Trump’s words suddenly turned robot-like, as the president segued into a bizarre, disjointed sequence that left many scratching their heads to decipher:

“That's a nasty fly. I don't like those suckers. I don't know about you New Mexico but I don't like flies or mosquitos. I don't like snakes too much either and we have plenty of those in New York and Washington, a different variety. I don't like any kind of snake. I think I like the kind of ground better than the ones we have in Washington.”

​While the scene inspired some to tweet their resentment at Trump or t turnedhe incident around to criticise his opponents, others just found the whole thing hilarious.

​The Twitter audience were true to themselves, dishing up a meme fest inspired by the incident:
