President-elect Trump posted a Thanksgiving-themed video jabbing President Biden and other Democrats on Thursday, portraying himself crashing a holiday meal and dancing.
“If this turkey tastes half as good as it looks, I think we’re all in for a very good treat,” a computer-generated Biden says in the clip Trump posted to his Truth Social and X accounts.
The video is a spoof of a turkey-cutting scene from "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation." In the video, the Biden figure prepares to cut the turkey as other Democrats sit at the table, including first lady Jill Biden, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), Sen.-elect Adam Schiff (Calif.), Vice President Harris and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.).
After the Biden character cuts the turkey, Trump's figure pops out of the bird, dancing to Village People's "Y.M.C.A."
The faces of Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) flash on screen, staring at the scene as the former president sways to the song that was regularly featured at his campaign rallies.
It's unclear who created the video, which circulated online before it was shared on Trump's accounts.
The incoming president targeted Democrats in an earlier Thanksgiving message hailed by his supporters as the return of "mean tweets."
“Happy Thanksgiving to all, including to the Radical Left Lunatics who have worked so hard to destroy our Country, but who have miserably failed, and will always fail, because their ideas and policies are so hopelessly bad that the great people of our Nation just gave a landslide victory to those who want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
Trump has repeatedly clashed with all of the Democrats portrayed in the video for their intense criticism of the Republican leader over the years.
Biden, who is staying in Nantucket, Mass., for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, said earlier Thursday he was thankful for a "peaceful transition" of power following this month's election.
Trump and Biden met face-to-face in the Oval Office earlier this month where they pledged a smooth transfer of power.
