đź’¨ Abstract

Former President Donald Trump posted and then deleted a racist video on Truth Social that depicted Barack and Michelle Obama as monkeys. The video, which promoted false election fraud claims, sparked widespread condemnation from both Democrats and some Republicans. Trump initially dismissed the backlash but later admitted a staffer had posted it in error. He condemned the racist imagery but defended the election fraud claims. Key figures like Kamala Harris and Senator Tim Scott criticized the post strongly.
