Hell TF Naw! Donald Trump Posts Wildly Racist Photo Of The Obamas As Monkeys
”Donald Trump is a white supremacist” -Jemele Hill (2017)
White people were outraged when sista Jemele Hill made this fact-based proclamation almost a decade ago but it was true then and it’s still true now.
According to TMZ, Donald Trump posted an AI generated video to his Truth Social account about “anomalies” that occur with voting machines. Likely, in an effort to cast doubt over the upcoming midterm election in November in which Republicans are forecasted to lose badly. In that video, there is an image of President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as monkeys.
Yes, monkeys. The racist trope that has been historically levied at Black folks for years.
It should come as no surprise that The White House is defending this as a “nothing burger”. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sent a statement to Deadline in a pathetic attempt to spin blantant racism.
“This is from an internet meme video depicting President Trump as the King of the Jungle and Democrats as characters from The Lion King. Please stop the fake outrage and report on something today that actually matters to the American public.”
Perhaps, Karoline doesn’t count Black folks as “the American public” but we assure you that we are as American as apple pie and Jim Crow.
Here’s how badly this is playing for Trump. Senator Tim Scott, the dignity-resistant loyalist who has consistently prostrated himself before the president for years, the only Black Republican member of the senate, had this to say according to CNN:
“Praying it was fake because it’s the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House. The President should remove it,”
When THIS furry-faced MAGA sycophant calls it racist, you KNOW that Trump is down bad.
California Governor Gavin Newsom took to Twitter to condemn Trump’s use of the racist image.
Disgusting behavior by the President. Every single Republican must denounce this. Now.
There is little to no chance that “every single Republican” denounce racism. A great many of them voted for Trump for his bigotry and would probably like to see him lean more into hate speech as he approaches lame duck status.
YG and Nipsey Hussle were always right.
