Trump Posts 'Racist' Video on Truth Social
CNN Inside Politics
Feb 6, 2026

The only Black Republican in the Senate is calling out President Trump for posting what he calls "the most racist thing from this White House. Late last night, a video appeared on Trump's Truth Social account that included the faces Barack and Michelle Obama superimposed on the bodies of apes. The White House, which initially shrugged off the negative response to the video as "fake outrage," subsequently deleted the post and blamed the whole thing on a White House staffer.
