Trump posts — then deletes — video depicting the Obamas as apes
Summary: US President Donald Trump shared a controversial video on his Truth Social account that included imagery portraying former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as apes. The clip, which was part of a longer video spreading debunked 2020 election fraud claims, drew widespread bipartisan criticism for using a racist stereotype. The White House initially defended the post as an “internet meme” before deleting it and attributing it to a staffer’s error amid intense backlash from both Democratic and Republican lawmakers.
