Seth Rogen has shared hilarious messages to Donald Trump’s son trying to persuade his father to give up the presidency.
The American actor noticed Donald Trump Junior followed him on the social media site and sent him a public tweet saying: "Yo! @DonaldJTrumpJr! I noticed you follow me on Twitter. Please ask your dad to resign before he destroys the planet. Thanks dude."
However, receiving no reply, he decided to privately message him, a feature only available if two users follow each other.
He posted screenshots of the lengthy messages to his 5 million followers with the caption, "let's see if this works!"
In the messages, which appear to go unanswered, he says he doesn’t want to come across as a “weirdo”, adding: “I’ve just realized I could message you so I thought I would.”
The first reads: “Hey man! It’s Seth. Your father is trying to discredit our media, collude with Russia, and destroy the environment. It would be super cool of you to be like, "yo, dad, why don't you stop all this and go back to being just a guy on TV." The majority of the world would be pretty psyched. Thanks!!!”
Receiving no reply, he adds: “Also, please tell your dad that this guy Jason Chaffetz, you know the dude with the awesome Twitter handle @jasoninthehouse should probably investigate Flynn’s connection to Russia because he got fired over it. Thanks man! Have a good one.
“So, maybe, ask your dad to investigate if his campaign was in talks with Russia leading up to the election? Or maybe just have someone investigate Flynn’s ties to Russia? Or maybe just ask your dad to go to hosting game shows? I bet he would prefer that. He doesn’t seem to like this. Thanks dude! Peace!!!”
Donald Trump Jr, 39, is the president’s oldest son and works alongside his brother Eric in their father’s business empire.
The president is a regular user of Twitter, posting regularly about the mainstream media and what he calls "fake news".
