Dementia Don reposted a video that was a spin on The Lion King. It depicted Democrats like Kamala Harris, Adam Schiff, and Hakeem Jeffries as various animals (giraffe, turtle, etc). Guess whose head was pasted on the Lion King? 
Of course it was Trump.
What has everyone talking now is that the video depicted Barack and Michelle Obama as. . . chimpanzees or monkeys or some kind of ape. That's not even a dogwhistle for the MAGA racists. It is a flashing neon sign.
Of course Democrats immediately denounced it and demanded that not only it be removed but an apology to the Obamas be issued. Professional liar Karoline Leavitt (press secretary) said that the response to it was "fake outrage" and the press should focus on something important. Senator Tim Scott (the only black GOP senator) tweeted today that he hoped it was a fake post because it was the most racist thing he has seen come out of the White House. (so what were the lesser racist things Tim?) After that several other GOP politicians spoke out against it saying that it was wrong and an apology should be offered.
Well after that don't you know that the post was deleted and the White House blamed a "staffer" for the post. I'm not on Trump's failing social media site but I read that the offensive video was posted just after 2am. Um what low-level staffer is posting stuff on his account at that time? There's only one person who posts insane stuff to that account all throughout the night--Trump. Furthermore Trump was recorded back in 2024 saying that only he and Dan Scavino had access to the account.
This is just one more example of how Trump is an absolutely horrible human being who has no business being president and who is a complete and total embarrassment to the United States. The racists love it though.

@LadyDuck We've always knownd trump is a racist and cheats people in business deals. That's nothing new. I was frankly amazed that so many of the American people voted for him in spite of those things.

@DaddyEvil - I am also amazed and right now I noticed a member on another post, who is trying to say that it's impossible that Trump posted something like that. SURE! That man is a saint. Some of his supporters are not different from him.

The cruelty and total idiocy of the current administration has no bounds, just when we think it can’t get any worse, it does.
