Ivanka Trump Accidentally Summoned ARMY With The BTS Hashtag
In 2020, BTS is everywhere, but nobody expected them to pop up in US politics!
Before BTS debuted, “BTS” had only one commonly known meaning: “behind the scenes”. On Twitter though, the #BTS hashtag stands for one thing and one thing only: BTS, as in Bangtan Sonyeondan, Bulletproof Boy Scouts, Beyond The Scene…You get the picture.
Ivanka Trump, daughter of and senior advisor to US President Donald Trump, did not get that memo. On February 4, she posted this photo and hashtagged it #BTS, complete with the hashtag’s purple BTS logo.
