President Trump retweeting that Independence day video really triggered the libs.
They won't even use the word meme, instead calling it a deepfake, KEK
If it was Obama and libs in that video they would LOVE IT.
The president's random post had been retweeted 50,000 times and had more than 153,000 "likes."
President Donald Trump on Saturday shared a heavily altered video clip from the film Independence Day in which it appears that he gives the iconic speech from the President of the United States.
Not only is Trump superimposed, but so are others in the crowd, including Ted Cruz and Donald Trump, Jr., but also Fox News' personalities Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity.
As of 8:30 p.m., the president's post had been retweeted 50,000 times and had more than 153,000 "likes."
Actor Bill Pullman, who played President Thomas J. Whitmore in Independence Day, was among those who saw the clip. And he responded.
"My voice belongs to no one but me, and I’m not running for president — this year," Pullman told The Hollywood Reporter.
Only Trump's face is superimposed in the video he shared, but the voice is still that of Pullman. It is unclear why Trump hijacked the moment.
In the film, starring Pullman, Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum, President Whitmore gives the climactic speech to troops before their assault on the alien invaders. A sequel, Independence Day: Resurgence, was released in 2016.

President Bill Pullman Trends After Donald Trump Inserts Himself Into Independence Day
Saturday afternoon, President Donald Trump shared a bizarre deepfake video in which a video editor superimposed the president's head over that of President Whitmore (Bill Pullman). The video comes from a pivotal moment from Independence Day (1996), one of which Whitmore gives one of the most memorable movie speeches of the past 30 years.
Suffice to say, the internet instantly had thoughts on the bizarre video, and they're letting it all play out on Twitter. In fact, so many people are commenting on the video, Bill Pullman quickly became a trending topic on the social network, with fans of Independence Day taking plenty of time to express their thoughts.
It's not the first time the president has shared a similar video. Last year, Trump took to Twitter to share a video of himself as Thanos (Josh Brolin) snapping the Infinity Gauntlet during the final battle from Avengers: Endgame. See what tweets are saying below:
