Democrat confronts Trump at speech over Obama video
Democratic US Representative Al Green said he confronted President Donald Trump at his State of the Union speech over a “deplorable” video on the Republican’s social media account depicting former president Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama as apes.
As Trump entered the House chamber on Tuesday, Green, of Texas, unfurled a white sign that read: “Black people aren’t apes!”.
The White House eventually took down the video and Trump said a staffer had posted it.
