Having said that, the claim is going viral on the left, so you need to have your facts lined up to challenge your TDS-suffering friends and acquaintances.
esterday, Donald Trump posted an interesting video on his social media about voting machine election fraud in 2020. This is obviously a topic dear to his heart. Moreover, as the investigations in Fulton County, Georgia, demonstrate, it’s still a very hot and important topic (making it all the more bizarre that Senate Republicans will not push the SAVE Act, which aligns with the bipartisan public desire for election integrity). That Trump would post such a video is a no-brainer.
The problem with the video Trump posted is that it’s a dead certainty that he reposted it without bothering to watch the whole thing. Had he watched it to the end, he would have known that there was a problem.
You see, the video is a screen recording captured by an unknown third party. And what the unknown third party was also clearly unaware of (or, possibly, didn’t care about) was the automated beginning of another, entirely unrelated video.
So, what you get after 58 seconds of a serious video about a serious topic is two seconds of an automatically played video showing Michelle and Barack Obama’s heads attached to the cartoon bodies of simian creatures. (Apes? Chimps? I have no idea.) You can see for yourself what happened: [video at link]
As I can attest from my slow learning curve in making video-podcasts, failing to clip the end of a screen recording is a classic amateur mistake. That means it’s entirely possible that the person who recorded the serious election fraud video, like Trump himself, had turned his attention away in the last few seconds, because the real point

Why did you capitalize “black?” Three times?
“”The Obama part was the first two seconds of the next video on X that started automatically. Trump or his aid should have snipped that part out.””
Your explanation is the only one that I understand. Thanks.
The article stated, to share the real thing with those who are confused...they are wired to stay that way so they would never accept this explanation..
Way too many Freepers act like FR is one giant campaign ad, watched by the entire world, and we therefore can never say anything critical of Trump - or any other conservative - because it will somehow hurt them. And that's...crap.
You know, I’ll feel bad about this right after every damn democrap in DC apologizes for all the hideous memes they’ve spread around about Trump.
suck it up, Buttercup; what goes around, comes around.
So you obviously didn’t read the article but still felt the need to opine, thereby shining a light on your ignorance. Gotcha
I don’t care if he knew. After all the Bushhitler, Chimpy Bush, and insults to Condoleeza Rice the left can STFU.
“”I could care less””
You COULD or you COULDN’T???
I thought people like Chief of Staff Susie Wiles was supposed to help prevent Trump from getting caught in a sticky wicket like this here.
I would advise asking his Press Sec. Karoline Leavitt instead. She seems pretty sharp, and may be more familiar with how to handle Memes online. Meanwhile, Karoline was ‘being a good soldier’ and spent yesterday morning defending the posting of that video. Somebody must have asked her to go on defense for the time being.
**Is former Digital Guru of first Trump admin.
Brad Parscale available on a freelance basis?
He would have caught that trapdoor exit.
No, you’re more of a TDS sufferer, which is a dubious group to be a part of.
His problem is posting troll stuff in general as if he is a 17 year old high school kid.
It appeals to a lot of his base. I guess that is the target group.
But his inattention and “hair trigger” finger gets him in trouble. Posting that video was unnecessary and damaging.
Well, it certainly flushed out the usual TDSers, panicans, and, even the FRanicans. :-)
Kissing Black Ass. KBA is an existential necessity for the Democrat party.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>..
Many Blacks are acutely aware of the evil racist history that has festered in the Democrat Party ever since slavery existed from Maine to Florida. And that is why KBA will continue to be an existential imperative for that anti-American Socialist party.
“”suck it up, Buttercup;””
You didn’t have to say that...it’s much to early to have that tune in my head that will last all day...I love it and will find it online and play it over and over later...not going to say “thanks.”
Well that should put that issue to rest. Right? Hello? Bueller?
Rosanne Barr was right about V.J.. And she’s Persian not African.
Some are going apeschiff
:)
I hope seditious conspirator Obama go apeschiff over this.
Maybe they would rather have 0bama back.
Look Trump is the guy who said what he said in the Access Hollywood tape which would have ended most political careers at least any politician running for POTUS on the Republican wing of the uniparty ballot slot.
Even his daughter, the mannequin was ready to throw him under the bus.
It steamed me too.
Not necessarily what he said but who he said it to.
Obviously he was trying to impress a member of the Bush family as being a “cool” guy by engaging in vulgar lockerroom chatter as it was characterized.
C’mon man, trying to impress a Bushki, you’re better than that.
Social media has more often than not ended careers than built them.
To Trump’s credit he has navigated social media to his benefit particularly in the 2016 campaign not to mention profiting on it with Truth Social.
My take is that I’m surprised that he has provided so little on social media for Elite Stream Media and church ladies on FR to get their knickers in knots about.
I see the problem here. There was no watermark disclaimer that the video contained “AI generated images.” A rookie mistake.
Please keep believing the main street press. You have no idea of the context of this. He was showing a video of voter fraud and about 3 seconds of the clip in question auto played before the recording finished. It’s so short they’re showing stills of video to try to make it bad. Everyone, please, for the love of God, do your own research before believing the democrat/media liars.
