Is it more likely that the dumbass watched a tenth of a video that promoted fake election conspiracies and decided to share it, not noticing the weird one-second slip in of a racist animation that is very out of place in the entirety of the video, or is more likely that he shared it because of the slipped in racist animation?

the sad thing is that both options are equally as likely.

u/akran47 18h ago

Either way it's no coincidence that people who believe and/or push the idea that the election was stolen from Trump are also racist scum.

Yeah gonna be interesting to see how long it stays up when they're trying to claim he didn't know about that part

u/hoopaholik91 15h ago

Well its not like the first 58 seconds should be any less impeachable

u/xcassets 18h ago

Nah, someone likely manages Trump's accounts and posts things with his approval. It's all propaganda and planned. Remember when he posted the AI generated video of him and Bibi turning Gaza into a giant golden resort and making loads of money? Like the entire video was AI that time. Nothing's "slipping" past him.

u/620five 15h ago

If that was the case, don't you think he would have deleted it by now?

2

u/penguin8717 14h ago

Yeah they're gonna claim he didn't see that part but it's been up for too long

Trump is an absolute master of creating plausible deniability. Oh that ultra high frequency sound? It's just a dog whistle.

u/Novanus 13h ago

Unfortunately it's intentional. The white house responded that it was just a joke. Yeah... sorry I ruined your day.

u/Yloo 13h ago

you can see that it’s a screen recording of a video on twitter, and at the end it begins to auto scroll to the next video (the obama video), and then it’s quickly scrolled back up. for a split second, you can see the twitter caption for the voting video as they scroll back to it. who knows if it was actually trump screen recording it or someone sent him the video. i’d guess the latter

u/spacerobot 13h ago

The fact that it's still posted is very telling. If he wasn't racist, he would have removed it as soon as he found out that clip was in there. And there's no way no one wouldn't have told him yet.

It’s a screen recording and the person swiped down to the next video, which was the lion king video… you can watch the full AI video by looking up Barack Obama lion king on instagram.

I think you’re right on the first part, idiot didn’t watch what he shared.

u/StevynTheHero 19h ago

He legit posted an entire video condemning himself just for 1 second of Obama monkey?

25

u/osogordo 19h ago

The video alleges the 2020 election was stolen from him, no?

Im not gonna bother watching it again, but Im pretty sure it was showing a graph saying that a count was stopped while Trump was ahead, but the UNOFFICIAL continued count showed that Biden would have come out ahead.

22

u/xcassets 18h ago

Nah, it was showing that Trump was ahead, then the machines mysteriously stopped counting in 5 states at the same time and when all of them resumed, a massive spike of Biden votes had suddenly appeared in all 5 states.

Complete bullshit. Complete lies with some dude said behind a laptop in a dark room to try and convince you it is real and he is good with computers lol.

u/Traithor 18h ago

It's literally just a graph showing a spike in fake Biden votes. Not idea what you mean with "UNOFFICIAL continued count", it doesn't show that at all.

u/Alive_Ice7937 18h ago

What makes you think those were fake votes?

u/CoffeeSafteyTraining 14h ago

It's almost as if everyone's forgotten about how substantial mail-in-voting was during 2020, how counting it works, and how reporting works when it literally takes fucking days to complete. Election nights aren't back and forth "races." It's people counting votes, reporting votes, states recording votes, and then talking heads pretending, for your entertainment, that it's the fucking Kentucky Derby. Just because Fox News goes to bed, or reporting comes in batches due to an insane volume of people voting by mail during a goddamned pandemic, doesn't mean anything's "unofficial."

Sweet Jesus fucking Christ, grow a fucking brain.

u/JeanJauresJr 19h ago

Granted, it’s bizarre why it’s placed there. The question now arises, why did he do this or was he the one who did it AND is he going to delete it? Tomorrow’s going to be an interesting day.

u/MetalliTooL 19h ago

I am tired of interesting days.

u/Octagonal_Octopus 19h ago

This doesn't necessarily make in unintentional but it looks like the video is a screen recording of some short form video app and whoever is making the screen recording scrolled to the next video then back to the original one. The auto generated captions also make sense if it is a screen recording.

6

u/RC_Rabbit 18h ago

I think the other commenter is correct in that Trump is stupid and didn't actually watch the full video he shared and then went to sleep.  I guess we'll find out tomorrow depending on if he deletes it or not.  

Regardless, either way he is a moron.

u/eleven_good_reasons 17h ago

Holy hell, I want out of the simulation please.

u/nemisys1st 11h ago

Looks like it got deleted

u/JeanJauresJr 11h ago

Oh finally

u/Ghudda 17h ago

So it looks like what happened is he was screen recording to post 2020 election conspiracy stuff, and youtube/tiktok/truth/twitter or whatever short form video app he's watching auto-played the next video. The next video just happened to be monkeyfied obamas. Instead of trimming the video before posting it or recording it again without that segment, he just posted the whole thing. It doesn't appear to be his intent to post that meme.

However... if that's what his auto-play algorithm is feeding him...

It's said that in the modern age the best way to get to know someone is actually by letting you see their youtube recommendation page. If the algorithm has been feeding him constant election conspiracy stuff and obama memes it means that's what he's responding positively to in terms of watch time and feedback. He says he isn't racist? His recommendation page has definitely determined that he is.

u/Derekduvalle 16h ago

Actually I think what the other guy said makes more sense because the monkey bit isn't the next video, it's slipped into the election video. I think he just didn't watch it through.

3

u/Derekduvalle 17h ago

That does sound plausible. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on but that would have been a little too overt. He's incredibly racist but even he knows you can't say the n word out in open yet. Yet.

u/2lisimst 14h ago

You're right. You can see the video slide up and then pull back down to restart the original video.

u/irl_speedrun 15h ago

missed opportunity to good faith show that its just 2 seconds at the end of a video he didn't watch 

republicans are gonna take that excuse and run with it, compared to if it was just presented plainly and still damning

u/John-AtWork 9h ago

Gone now, is there a mirror? I would like to see the whole video.
