This isn't even the first time Republicans portrayed Obama as a monkey. It was kind of a low-hanging meme for them during his presidency.

In the full version of the video snipped in Trump's post, Obama was portayed as an ape, not a monkey. Biden was portrayed as a monkey. Trump was portrayed as an animal dumber than both Biden and Obama, as a lion.

Obama and his wife were the smartest animals portrayed in the entire video, including smarter than all the white people animals portrayed, as members of the apes.

Yeah... no. You're not going to convince anyone that Obama and his wife were portrayed as apes, monkeys, what have you by the Trump administration as a compliment or that there was some kind of reverse racism against white people involved, or a sly jab at Trump's intelligence.

I'm half convinced you're doing satire here, and you don't even believe it yourself.
