Yes, President Donald Trump is losing his racist ass mind. But before we get started, let’s make a few things clear.
10 Reasons Why Obama Is Not An Ape But Still Has A Bigger Banana Than Trump:
1) He won a Nobel Peace Prize. Trump didn’t.
2) He never lost a Presidential Election. Trump did.
3) He graduated magna cum laude from Harvard. Trump graduated magna cum nada from UPenn.
4) He never cheated on his pregnant wife with a porn star.
5) He never got sued by the pornstar he cheated on his pregnant wife with.
6) He never subjected the nation to a theatrically released documentary about his wife to make up for cheating on her.
7) He’s never been accused of rape.
8) His name is not in the Epstein files.
9) He’s never been convicted of fraud for inflating his assets.
10) He’s never…[insert one of your own].
Now the facts and nothing but the facts, aka what had happened was…
It’s late on a Thursday night. Trump is on the ole throne, scrolling through some racist algorithm X generated on his phone. When all of a sudden, he stumbles upon a video. This is it, he thinks. This video explains it all. In actuality, Trump didn’t lose the 2020 election. Chinese operatives embedded microchips in voting machines all along. Aha! Trump’s so excited; he doesn’t even finish the video. He impulsively sends it to an aide in charge of his social media instead. The aide watches the entire thing. Spliced into the last 2 seconds is a cartoon of Barak and Michelle Obama dressed in ape costumes jamming to a song from the Lion King.
The aide sees the 2 second clip and thinks, Sure! This is totally the President’s style! The aide then posts the video under Trump’s name on Truth Social — at 11:44pm on a Thursday night. Yeah, sure. That’s exactly what happened.
How should we feel about it?
Recorded statements of indifference and outrage:
— It’s just lazy racism. Here it is 2026, and this fool is still pedaling monkey jokes. Talk about stale material. What am I supposed to do with that—hop around like a monkey, point, and yell ‘oooh oooh oooh racism’?
— He’s just looking for attention, and we shouldn’t give him any.
— Racists must be so disappointed. He’s making it so much harder to be one in public.
— I wonder if people would be this nonchalant if he was talking about their mamas.
— He’s just so jealous of Barack and Michelle. Them people been out of office for damn near a decade, and he still can’t get them out his mind.
— It’s an escalation. Even Stevie Wonder can see that. Think about it. He came through the door waging war on DEI, firing black people from the military, and restoring confederate names to bases. Nowadays, you go to the President’s House in Pennsylvania, and he removed all references to George Washington’s slaves. You go to a national park in Mississippi, and he has it so Medgar Evers’ killer isn’t even mentioned as being a racist anymore. Let him tell it, the Civil Rights Act was bad for white people. And now here he is demeaning our first family. He’s rewriting our history right before our eyes. Black people better wake their asses up.

— I think the person who made the video was actually trolling him. How else can you explain the 2 second splice at the end? What do Obamas and apes have to do with a documentary about Chinese spyware? Nothing. It actually detracts from it. It’s like they knew he wouldn’t watch the whole video before posting it.
— It’s how he keeps his base engaged. You know how in movies the scientist keeps a monster locked in the basement and feeds it to keep it strong until it’s time to unleash it on the townspeople. That’s how Trump thinks of his base. Trump’s the scientist; his base is the monster. And he feeds them a steady diet of people of color. During the election, it was Haitian; then once in office, it was Mexican; now it’s back to their known staple — good ole Soul Food.
One last thing
This was just a dumb move. It shows just how dysfunctional Trump has become as a strategist and a President. Hardly anybody is defending this. Mark my word. Come November, after his failed attempt to nationalize the election, he’s going to get Republicans slaughtered in the midterms.
Great analysis Brother Cooper! I figured Trump was trying to stir up so much civil unrest that he would feel justified in canceling the upcoming midterms.
