“What the hell kind of coin toss is that @realdonaldtrump?????” asked @WadyPhoto, whose video of the televised incident had by early Tuesday garnered more than 1.6 million views.

As these posts prove, many folks weren’t convinced by his method:

He wanted to throw it higher than Obama did.

It’s like Donald was making the toss look so dramatic, you know, got the cameras. I’ll bet he practiced all week for it!

Nobody flips coins better than he does. He flips all the best coins. The best!

I love that he points to it to prove he did throw it and it is ,in fact, still a coin.

He's never held an actual coin before, nevermind tossed one. #privilege much?
