A post shared on Truth Social by President Donald Trump has sparked backlash after it included an edited video portraying former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as monkeys.

The controversy centers on a video Trump reposted that begins as a serious clip from the Patriot News Outlet. The video references claims about a Michigan investigation into voting technology used in the 2020 presidential election — an election Trump has repeatedly alleged was rigged, despite a lack of evidence supporting those claims.
