Not too long after Donald Trump’s stunning presidential win against Hillary Clinton on that wretched evening of Nov. 8, the Internet Black Twitter launched a scathing attack on Kanye West for meeting with the business tycoon, allegedly to discuss matters concerning “multiculturalism”. Soon thereafter, we’d see comedian and television host Steve Harvey follow suit—this time, to discuss “housing development”.
Needless to say, his encounter with the president-elect was met with equal dismay, many nay-sayers partaking in a collective onslaught of political satire.
One writer and social critic, César Vargas, took things even further by flooding Instagram timelines with photographs of some of our most beloved heroes and heroines fraternizing with Trump. Not only is the gesture a stark reminder of Trump’s age-old pandering to people of color, but it simultaneously serves as gut-busting comedy gold (just check out his captions!).
However daunting it might be that an ill-equipped reality TV star will be formally inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States of America this coming Friday, at least we have the following memories to remind us of just how jolly ol’ Donny can be. Amiright?
