Trump’s racist post about Obamas is deleted after backlash despite White House earlier defending it

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s social media post featuring former President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, as primates in a jungle was deleted after a backlash from both Republicans and Democrats who criticized the video as racist.

The Republican president’s Thursday night post was deleted Friday and blamed on a staffer after widespread backlash, from civil rights leaders to veteran Republican senators, for its treatment of the nation’s first Black president and first lady. The deletion, a rare admission of a misstep by the White House, came hours after press secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed “fake outrage” over the post. After calls for its removal for being racist -- including by Republicans -- the White House said a staffer had posted the video erroneously and it had been taken down.

The post was part of a flurry of social media activity on Trump’s Truth Social account that amplified his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him, despite courts around the country and a Trump attorney general from his first term finding no evidence of fraud that could have affected the outcome.

Nearly all of the 62-second clip, which was among dozens of Truth Social posts from Trump overnight, appears to be from a conservative video alleging deliberate tampering with voting machines in battleground states as the 2020 presidential votes were tallied. At the 60-second mark is a quick scene of two primates, with the Obamas’ smiling faces imposed on them.

    Tim Scott calls Obamas video shared by Trump ‘most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House’

    That's saying a lot when referring to "this White House"!

    From Curt's source...

    “This is from an internet meme video depicting President Trump as the King of the Jungle and Democrats as characters from the Lion King,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt had said.

    “Please stop the fake outrage and report on something today that actually matters to the American public,” she continued.


    Looks like we're back to Epstein. 🙂

    Btw, the White Houses's less-than credible excuse that a "staffer erroneously" posted the offensive video should be embarrassing to Trump if true.
    1. It means he hires racist or incompetent staffers.
    2. He doesn't control his Truth-Social account.

    If the Democrats in Congress are smart (I am not saying they are), they should demand this anonymous staffer be identified and fired.

    I had not seen this when I made my comment above.

    Trump-allied pastor: Staffer who posted Obamas video ‘should be fired immediately’
    Pastor Mark Burns, an ally to President Trump, on Friday said that the White House staffer who posted a since-deleted racist video depicting former President Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama as apes “should be fired immediately.”

    “The President made it clear to me that this post was made by a staffer and not by him,” Burns wrote on the social platform X after he said he spoke to Trump about the video. “My recommendation to the President was direct and firm.”

    I happy that some Dems (and a Trump-supporting pastor mentioned above) are calling for the firing of the "staffer".

    California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), who was also depicted as an animal in the video, responded through his press office’s X account by posting a poll, asking users, “Who should Trump fire first?” The poll lists Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem; White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller; “Gestapo Greg,” referring to Border Patrol commander-at-large Greg Bovino; and the “racist monkey vid staffer.”

    LOL! One thing we know is the "staffer" must be a tweaker because who else would be up all Christmas night posting nearly 150 times on Trump's Truth Social account?

    Trump Posts Nearly 150 Times in Unhinged Christmas Day Spree

    President Donald Trump gifted the world nearly 150 Truth Social posts (and counting) on Christmas Day, where he complained about the 2020 election, the media, Democrats, Somali immigrants, and other favorite targets.

    In the early hours of Thursday, Christmas Day, the president shared a flurry of posts, many of which amplified baseless claims made by his allies and fans. It’s unclear if Trump, 79, published the posts himself or if he was in bed after attending a holiday dinner at Mar-a-Lago with his wife and father-in-law, then wishing a Merry Christmas to everyone—including “Radical Left Scum.” The White House did not immediately return a request for comment.

    The AI memes of Trump and Melania as monkeys and orangutans are flying all over like crazy. I even did one myself...


  8. by Curt_Anderson on February 8, 2026 8:17 am
    Trump claims that it was an understandable accident, and not intentional that the demeaning post depicting Barack and MichelleObama as apes happened. Namely, the excuse is that the "staffer" only saw the beginning of the post talking about the 2020 election being "stolen" and had not seen the ending part with the Obama before reposting it.

    In that case, we could've just as easily seen on Trump's personal truth-social account, a declaration of of nuclear war on Europe, tucked at the end of some animation of awacky conspiracy theory which he holds.

    This is one of my favorites. And not racist in any way at all!

    He's half right - it's not a problem for us. It's only a problem for him. 🙂
