Donald Trump video portraying Obama’s as apes

Having black and brown people in your cabinet does not mean you are not racist. The PoC are weapons used against other PoC. Like Usha Vance, treated like dirt by her own husband.
The same seen in the UK, where PoC are used to announce just about every racist iniative, like sending refugees to Rwanda.

How can you possibly be "bewildered"?

Ask MNHQ why your post was deleted if you really don't understand. But frankly, you could have done a quick google in the time that it would have taken you to write this post to find out why your post would have been considered horribly racist. If you actually wanted to know.

If you are genuinely as shockingly ignorant as you are claiming to be, then it's about time you educated yourself. Personally, I think you know exactly why your post was deleted and you're just being disingenuous.

Disgusting.

Yes. This video is entirely in line with everything he says and does. There is no way that it was a mistake.
The even bigger shame is the enablers around trump.
Only a couple of republican politicians have spoken out against portraying black people as monkeys.
Silence means either agreement or cowardice.
Even some black republicans are saying nothing.
Much like the black and asian members of Reform or women who hang around misogynistic men they fool themselves that they can be part of the gang if they say and do the right things in a desperate pick me charade when in reality they are all just turkeys voting for christmas.

Black unemployment in the US was up in 2025 quite a bit, employment was a lot better in 2023. Hispanic unemployment is down.

Really fascinating watching all the mad Trumpy evangelicals fanning out on Twitter to dig their tongues into the Dear Leader’s arse. Clearly the administration was worried enough by this to order them to get licking.

Easy to forget that this ‘mistake’ that Trump said wasn’t a mistake, that was done by somebody else except he would have done it anyway, started with posting a bonkers conspiracy theory video about the 2020 election - not ok either. Also if you have racist material coming up on your social media feed it’s because you watch a lot of it.

I’ve just realised that I put 1990! Obviously I meant 2020, how embarrassing. 🤣

Absolutely agree

How sad that the system is so broken in the US that their ‘president’ can post this and absolutely nothing happens.

Completely agree with this. Trump thrives on attention, positive and negative. Wish the world would just ignore him.

Anyone who suggests that Trump wasn’t being racist is being deliberately obtuse or is just plain ignorant He knows that the video is racist ( that was his intention )and I cannot understand the mental gymnastics some posters are using to prove otherwise
Trump doesn’t give a hoot if people think that he is racist , what he cares about is those Epstein files .
His posting the video was a deliberate attempt to distract attention away from questions about his involvement with Epstein and the redaction of some of the files

Obama got ripped to shreds for wearing a tan suit.

The 34x felon, racist paedophile posts this..and nothing! Absolutely nothing!

And MAGA just lap it up. Why? Because they are just like him!

🤮

Thank you, that's very intetesting.This is an important point. Previous Democrat governments failed to deal properly with unemployment, so I can understand people voting Trump not because they necessarily think he's a great person but because they felt he would materially improve their lives.

Can I ask what the Uber drivers liked about Trump? Anything particular he'd done?

Unemployment amongst those demographics at the lowest level in years. Over the past 18 months I have travelled extensively in the USA for around 22 weeks total (three trips). Met many people of all races and backgrounds. I am interested in politics so the conversations tended to drift in that direction. This is obviously anecdotal and one person's experience but I only encountered one person who spoke against Trump (my airbnb hostess). Even she admitted that although she had a personal aversion to him, the country has hugely improved since his election. All our Uber drivers (mostly black, some hispanics, less white Americans) were full of praise for the new government 🤷🏽‍♀️

Might you give some more detail on this? :

'the improvement to the lives of black and hispanic citizens engendered during his presidency'

Harris didn't run an economically left wing campaign, I think pp probably meant her social positions. It was a terrible mistake to support transwomen in women's spaces, for one thing.

Hmm...so you think Trump meant it in a non-racist way. What about the person who created the post? Do you think they also meant it in a non-racist way?

I'm pretty critical of Obama myself but I'd never call him a 'trained animal'. That seems bizarre. He doesn't seem to be slavishly following anyone else's orders...do you really think that Trump believed that about Obama? I don't think so...

Bewildered as to how I was deemed/ perceived as 'racist' for using the term 'trained monkeys' - a well-known term unrelated to race, and equivalent (for example) to the notion of the human being a 'reasoning ape'. My point (now lost as the post has been unaccountably deleted) was that it struck me that the behaviour of the Obamas was as such (i.e. behaving like puppets) - and I suggested this was the angle of the 2 second clip in the Donald Trump video. Entirely unrelated to race in other words. As mentioned in the deleted post the evidence that Trump is anything but racially prejudiced is clear in his cabinet appointments as well as the improvement to the lives of black and hispanic citizens engendered during his presidency. I am mixed race myself, as can be ascertained by checking some of my old posts. But 'ban the racist! kick her out!'. Try engaging in respectful debate, perhaps🤷🏽‍♀️

I always thought it was a shame he didn’t die of COVID in 1990, we wouldn’t have had the January 6th insurrection or Trump returning to the Presidency.

@simpsonthecat thanks for your post, I didn't know about this story. (Trump and the Central park jogger case). I'm familiar with the miscarriage of justice but I didn't know about Trump's involvement. I looked it up there and not only did he speak out in 1989 but he called them murderers as recently as 2024 and they are suing him. I hope they squeeze every penny out of him but of course that won't happen. It will be dragged out until they are too emotionally exhausted to keep fighting.

I think if you are fairly chilled with hitting and raping women and with child molestation then racism is pretty much a non issue.

Reading the sworn testimonies against Trump leave you in no doubt that if you have sufficient money and power you can stroll through life without any consequences whatsoever.

Depressingly he's electioneering and it may work ...

Some people who are much more unkind and cynical than I are suggesting that the heinous and miraculously well-healed injury he got on his ear wasn't from the alleged bullet, but merely a scratch he received from when the Secret Service threw him to the ground.

He's a cunt and it's a shame the assassin missed.

Those who vote for him can no longer deny that he is a vile racist .
I judge and will continue to judge anyone who votes for this man .

He is a vile human being, a stain on a civilised society. He is rotten to the core, entwined completely with Epstein and all the other high status men who moved in that immoral circus. Vile.
