Trump Faces Backlash Following Racist AI Video of Obama

#WashingtonDC, #USA
Donald Trump is facing intense international criticism after sharing an artificial intelligence-generated video on Truth Social depicting Barack Obama and Michelle Obama as primates dancing to "The Lion Sleeps Tonight."The clip also promotes debunked conspiracy theories claiming Dominion Voting Systems manipulated 2020 election results in Pennsylvania, an allegation the voting company continues to challenge following a $787.5 million settlement with Fox News.While White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed the backlash as "fake outrage," Democratic leaders including Gavin Newsom and Raja Krishnamoorthi condemned the imagery as racist dehumanization.
