President Donald Trump has sparked controversy by sharing a meme depicting himself and Vice President JD Vance in a parody of the infamous OJ Simpson police chase, with Barack Obama in the role of Simpson. The meme, which features unflattering imagery of Vance, was embraced humorously by the vice president, who shared it on social media. Trump did not explain the post, but it comes amid renewed attacks on Obama, as Trump seeks to deflect criticism over his handling of the Epstein files and ongoing questions about his campaign promises.

Trump has accused Obama of serious crimes and shared additional content portraying Obama as a criminal, even as the Supreme Court recently ruled that presidents are immune from prosecution for official acts. Obama, through his spokesperson, has dismissed the allegations as baseless distractions, pointing to bipartisan findings that Russia did not manipulate votes in the 2016 election. Meanwhile, both parties in Congress are clashing over investigations into past administrations, with Democrats accusing Trump of using sensational memes and conspiracy theories to divert attention from his own controversies.
