NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ - A lot of people seem to have "Donald Trump" on the brain lately.

Like President Obama, for instance, during a commencement speech at Rutgers University over the weekend.

"The world is more interconnected then ever before," Obama stated. "And it's becoming more connected every day. Building walls won't change that."

Although the president didn't mention Trump by name, "The Donald" was obviously being discussed.

"Let me be as clear as I can be, in politics and in life, ignorance is not a virtue," the President continued. "It's not cool to not know what you're talking about."

Not all students were happy with President Obama's speech, though.

One graduate said, "It was an honor to have him here, but at the end of the day it was just an attack on Trump."

Well, that didn't stop Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren from bringing up Trump in her commencement speech at Bridgewater State University.

Warren referenced her recent "Twitter war" with Trump and quoted Taylor Swift with how to deal with critics. "And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate," Warren sang.

Yep, she said to just "Shake it off!"

But Trump apparently didn't get that memo.

When asked in a New York Times interview about the public Twitter feud, Trump reportedly referred to warren as "Pocahontas."

Well, while digesting that Trump comeback, folks in Lithuania have to "stomach" this mural of Trump kissing Vladimir Putin outside a Lithuanian barbecue joint!

Yeah, the mural was commissioned by the restaurant owner who wanted to include Trump on his restaurant wall.

Now that the image has gone viral, the mural is getting plenty of publicity.

Which just goes to show, when it comes to Trump, it's hard for some folks to 'shake him off!'
