American online retail website Amazon introduced a new toilet paper printed with US President Donald Trump's classic tweets, in an attempt to fight back his previous attack against the company, reported Washington Examiner.
A single toll of the two-ply paper is sold at 11.99 US dollars for Amazon prime customers, costing slightly lower than a previous offering of a similar toilet paper pictured with Trump's face, which was sold at 12.95 US dollars.

The e-commerce giant said on its website that the product will be manufactured by a company called Toilet Tweets, while delivery was being "fulfilled by Amazon."
However, by mid-Friday morning Amazon seemed to want to deviate itself from the toilet paper by directing buyers who searched for these key words to a page saying the paper was only available for purchase through a third party.
Most of the tweets included on the paper captured some of the most controversial statements Trump made at given events before his inauguration, which were either ironic or funny.

“Do you think Putin will be going to The Miss Universe Pageant in November in Moscow – if so, will he become my new best friend?” reads one tweet from 2013.
"The Electoral College is a disaster for democracy,” another tweet from 2012 said.
A tweet from 2014 says: “Are you allowed to impeach a president for gross incompetence?”
