Former President Donald Trump has shared a comedic take on his conversation with Barack Obama during Jimmy Carter’s funeral at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.
The video, which Trump posted on his social media accounts, has caused quite a stir, with its mix of satire, political jabs, and creative lip-reading.
The Hilarious Spoof Video
Trump’s spoof version of the conversation, posted to his Truth Social and Instagram accounts, begins with Obama sitting next to Trump in the pews as somber choral music plays in the background.
The two exchange pleasantries before diving into a mock roast of their political peers.
The AI-generated voices in the video add to the absurdity, with Obama congratulating Trump on his 2024 victory, before Trump humorously quips, “Anyone could beat her,” referring to Vice President Kamala Harris.
In another amusing segment, Obama critiques President Biden’s refusal to step down after a poor debate performance.
“He just didn’t want to leave,” the fake Obama complains, referencing Biden’s performance.
“I did what I could to help [Kamala], but she was horrendous.”
The parody doesn’t stop there; it includes a scowling Hillary Clinton, whom Trump jokes still “hates” him and will “never forgive” him.
The Kamala Harris ‘Falling Off the Wagon’ Joke
One of the most memorable moments of the spoof occurs when Kamala Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, sit down in front of Trump and Obama.
As they chat, the fake Obama turns to Trump and says, “Did you see that, she won’t even look at me.”
Trump responds with the line, “I was told by some of the people, apparently they said she fell off the wagon.”
Obama adds, “I think she actually may have. She’s not really built for this.
And that pressure, if you’re not built for it, will do it.”
The video ended with the two mock leaders making plans to meet up, but not before a humorous interaction with Harris and Emhoff in the row ahead of them.
Trump Reflects on His Real-Life Interaction with Obama
Later that evening, at a Mar-a-Lago press conference, Trump was asked about his real-life interaction with Obama at the funeral.
While he declined to share specifics about their conversation, he did remark, “It did look very friendly, I must say.”
Trump acknowledged seeing the buzz about their friendly exchange on television and social media. “I didn’t realize how friendly it looked.
I said, ‘Boy, they look like two people who like each other,’ and we probably do,” he added.
Despite their political differences, Trump and Obama appeared to get along during their time at the funeral.
Trump even noted that he generally gets along with most people, referencing the occasional snub he receives, such as from Karen Pence, the former Second Lady.
Trump and Obama’s Complex History
Although Trump and Obama have a complicated history, with Trump’s birther movement and Obama’s famous roast of Trump at the 2011 White House Correspondents’ Dinner, their interaction at Carter’s funeral seemed to suggest a more cordial relationship.
The two shared laughs, with Trump managing to make Obama chuckle several times during their conversation.
Their light-hearted exchange at the funeral was a stark contrast to the political tensions that have defined their past interactions, but for the moment, it seemed the two men were old friends enjoying each other’s company.
