A man shared a stunning fact about Donald Trump's two presidential terms and has gone viral in the process.
Trump is currently in the second year of his second presidential term, having previously been elected in 2016 and again in 2024.
Having served as the 45th and 47th president of the United States, his current term is under the spotlight for the ongoing war in Iran, which is affecting the economy across the globe. And while his three separate presidential election battles are now far in the past, some people are only just realizing one historic fact.
Actor and content creator @legend_already_made went viral for a post shared to Instagram in March, where he wrote simply: "I wonder if it bothers Trump that he is the only president in history who has never won an election against a man."
In response to a request for comment, White House spokesperson Davis Ingle told Newsweek: "President Trump was overwhelmingly elected by nearly 80 million Americans to deliver on his popular and commonsense agenda. No other President in history has accomplished more for the American people than President Trump, who is working tirelessly to create jobs, cool inflation, increase housing affordability, and more.
"The President has already made historic progress not only in America but around the world, and this is just the beginning as his agenda continues taking effect."
In 2016, Trump won his first presidency by beating out Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. Four years later, in 2020, Trump lost the election to Joe Biden.
Trump returned to the White House in January 2025, after defeating former Vice President Kamala Harris in the race.
While the above facts are all common knowledge, hearing it stated in such a way led the man's post to go viral, with more than 824,000 likes and a whopping 20 million views -- and the comment section flared into a heated debate.
"He prevented the first female president twice I honestly think he's incredibly proud of that," one suggested, and another said Trump "saved us" from a female president, with more responding in anger that a woman is perfectly suitable for the role.
Others shared Trump's disproven claim that he had actually won the 2020 election, one insisting "he beat Biden in 2020," and another saying "he won all three."
Trump has repeated voter fraud claims over the years, particularly in trying to undermine the results of the 2020 election which he lost to Biden. He has repeated disproven theories that ballots were altered or stolen and that illegal migrants were allowed to cast votes in some states that he lost.
Other commenters shared untrue claims of their own, with one writing: "He never won against a woman either, factually cheated both times." Hundreds of commenters replied telling the person they were incorrect, as there were no reliable sources to back any of those claims up.
The post also sparked a conversation on female-led politics in the U.S., with one asking if the post is "saying women are easier to run against."
Clinton and Harris were not the only women to run for the presidency of the United States. The first to do so was Victoria Claflin Woodhull, who declared herself a presidential candidate in 1870, according to a report from Google Arts & Culture. However, it would be another 50 years before the ratification of the 19th Amendment allowed American women to vote.
Margaret Chase Smith was the first woman to be nominated for president by a major party, receiving 27 delegates at the 1964 Republican convention, but was not chosen as the candidate. Lenora B. Fulani ran as an independent in 1988 and 1992, becoming the first woman and first African American to appear on the ballot, where she won 225,000 votes.
There were many more female hopefuls in the years between, but Clinton became the first woman in history to represent a major party -- the Democrats -- in a U.S. presidential election. She won the 2016 popular vote by 48 percent to 46 percent, but the Electoral College favored her opponent, Trump.
Harris became the Democratic nominee for the presidential race in August 2024, after former President Biden announced in July that he would not be seeking reelection.
