Trump puts up AI video of Obama being arrested by the FBI in the Oval Office (cdn.prod.dailykos.com)

Republished from DailyKos under their terms.

Donald Trump put up a video of President Barack Obama being arrested by the FBI in the Oval Office as you can see in the screen grab. Trump is exceedingly happy about it, of course.

The video starts with Obama and a number of Democrats all saying "No One Is Above The Law," then a clown picture, and then the video of the FBI grabbing Obama. Then, Obama is in prison orange jumpsuit in a prison hallway, and then finally in a jail cell.

Here it is on Trump's Truth Social account.

Smaller versions without the No One Is Above The Law intro:

Mario Nawfal has a link to it up on his X account.

Here's the direct link to it, still on X.

It's really a small screen video, and the soundtrack sounds like something from the Village People.

This is also up on Trump's Truth Social.

Samantha Power was Obama's Ambassador to the United Nations. Under Joe Biden, she was the Administrator of the United States Agency for International Developmen. USAID.

All what money? Besides her political and service career, she wrote 4 books. She had $20 million before she became the USAID Administrator. She had $30 million when she left. Elon Musk wondered how she went from $6.7 million to $30 million in three years. He obviously had a wrong starting point. Trump and Musk were doing everything they could to discredit her and USAID.

Wonder why only one of those mugshots uses the person's middle name. I'm sure there's no real reason behind that.

His use of "no one is above the law" is FUCKING INFURIATING considering the massive injustice that was all at the hands of "Judge" Cannon.

I hope "I'm too much of a coward to take action" Garland never sleeps through the night for the rest of his life. How's that "don't want to appear political" working out now...

Blaming the opposition for what they are doing.

Posting a picture of Obama getting arrested when Trump is the rapist/criminal/possible child abuser, is the adult equivalent of a kid saying 'no you'.

Why is America putting up with this?

Because a large part of the population have never progressed beyond the mentality of children.

Anything but Epstein.

Literally illegal as of this month.

How did Samantha Power make all of that money?

I think he's genuinely asking - he wants investment tips 😂

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 days ago

Trump adds to his lies.

Writing books that apparently sell for millioms of dollars sure seems popular with the democrats. That's totally not similar to selling arts as money lumdering. No no, not at all. All fair game.

Books are the new "art".

Actually telling like it is, gets you down voted. I mean I'm not a fan of republicans at all, but to think that Obama isn't bought is super fucking weird.

He basically gave you the shitty version of single payer healthcare, so that the Health insurance could still profit on the backs of Americans, he had the chance to give you universal healthcare (there were massive demands and protests). In his words, the american way is to get health insurance through your job.

That's not really the point here. The reasons you or I dislike Obama have nothing to do with the reasons Trump dislikes Obama. Regardless of who it is, posting AI videos of his political opponents being jailed is alarming. It's also just weird that Trump continues to be obsessed with him in current year.
