Donald Trump said on Friday evening, after a racist video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes had been posted to his social media account and then deleted, that he had directed aides to post the offensive video but that he hadn’t seen that portion of the clip and he refused to apologize for it.
The clip appeared during one of the 79-year-old US president’s increasingly frequent late-night posting sprees to his Truth Social account, and shows the laughing faces of the former president and first lady superimposed on the bodies of primates in a jungle setting, bobbing to the song The Lion Sleeps Tonight.
Although the White House initially defended the video in a statement from the press secretary, the video was later deleted and reporters were told that it had been posted, without the president’s knowledge, by an aide.
Has he ever apologized for anything? Ever? Even sarcastically?
The Supreme Leader does not poop or do any wrong.
It was the shart heard round the world.
We all saw the video proving that claim wrong.
posted, without the president’s knowledge, by an aide
Bullshit. We all know he is obsessed with the gorilla channel.

It’s right there in the summary.
On a website that he owns and from an account directly tied to his name…
Yeah, it was someone else./s
An apology from this fuck is worthless anyway
“Trump refuses to apologize” is really all you need there, but of course we already knew that. He never apologizes.
What’s he trying to distract people from now?
From being a racist. He’s really bad at distractions.
So will black people still vote for him again?
I guess black people that think they are one of the “good ones” will continue being Republican. And yeah, if the conservatives manage to keep Pedonald alive for it and finagle a way to illegally have him run for a third term, the blacks with pick-me energy will vote for him.
Even though it’s been obvious for decades that he’s racist AF.
