The race is on with Biden and Trump pretty much going head-to-head in the presidential election. Bernie Sanders dropped out while Obama endorsed his former vice president. It really didn't take long for Trump to conjure up a response, especially since Obama did throw some shade his way while endorsing Biden.
The unofficial ad that Trump shared bashing Obama and Biden was soundtracked by DJ Kool's "Let Me Clear My Throat." Like many songs that Trump's used on the campaign trail and beyond, he did not get proper authorization to use the song.
"I HAD ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT TRUMP TWEET THIS MORNING AS FAR AS THEM USING MY MUSIC IS CONCERNED AND I GOT MY MGMT TEAM ON TOP OF IT RIGHT NOW,” Kool wrote in the caption of a since deleted post, Genius reports. “TO ALL MY FOLLOWERS THAT HIT ME IN SUPPORT OF THIS ISSUE I LOVE YOU ALL THANK YOU SO MUCH AND GOD BLESS YOU (PLEASE REPOST THIS.)”
The video included Obama's head photoshopped onto Dennis Haysbert body in an Allstate Commercial before an old clip of Biden talking about how kids rubbed his leg when he was a lifeguard starts up. As the credits roll for a Trump-Pence 2020 win, Kool's track plays in the background.
Trump Mocks Obama & Biden’s Bromance In Campaign Video
As Biden and Trump face off in the 2020 elections, the current President takes aim at the bromance between former president Obama and vice president.
Coronavirus might be the main concern for all Americans right now but Trump's also pondering the future of the election. Now, we all know that he's been letting the tweets slide frivolously these days, especially now since Biden will officially be running against him for the presidential election. The war has been waged and Trump will clearly go to great lengths to humiliate his opponent... and Obama, apparently.

Obama's endorsement of Biden was not surprising but Trump is clearly firing shots at anyone standing next to his adversary, especially after 44 criticized him for handling the current pandemic. Taking to Twitter, Trump (or a memester on his team) created a dubbed edit of an Allstate Commercial with Obama's head shopped onto actor Dennis Haysbert body as the character and his friends watch an basketball game.
“Not another commercial,” they said as a campaign commercial for Biden played. Trump edited the viral clip of Biden talking about kids rubbing his leg when he was a lifeguard at a swimming pool to “hair come back up again.”
The group of men look at Obama with concern before he says, "What?" The video then cuts to "Trump-Pence. Make America Great Again!" while House Of Pain's "Jump Around" plays in the background.
Trump's reps confirmed this is not an official campaign ad. Surely, this won't be the last time Trump trolls Joe Biden or Obama in the months to the come.
