President Donald Trump has embarked on a bizarre posting spree touting his friendship with Black celebrities following his racist video of Barack and Michelle Obama. The president took to social media on Wednesday morning to post a series of clips showing him with everyone from ear-biting boxer Mike Tyson, convicted felon Diddy and accused child molester Michael Jackson. How quickly people forget. So Sad! President DJT," Trump wrote in an apparent effort to bolster his credentials with the Black community. One post, sarcastically titled "A Timeline of Trump's bigotry," featured a TikTok video with various images, from the president kissing Black babies and hugging Oprah Winfrey, to shaking Will Smith's hand and hanging out with Snoop Dogg.

Vice President JD Vance has deleted a post about the Armenian Genocide from his social media accounts in an embarrassing climbdown. After attending the Milano Cortina Winter Olympic Games Opening Ceremony on Friday, he flew to Armenia as part of a much-touted trip to support a U.S.-brokered deal to end the country's long-running conflict with Azerbaijan. But he accidentally broke ranks with his own boss after he and his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, laid a wreath on a memorial honoring those who died during Armenia's 1915 genocide. In the initial now-deleted social media post, Vance said they were "at the Armenian Genocide memorial to honor the victims of the 1915 Armenian genocide." Trump has long refused to call the systematic killing of Armenians a "genocide," a term disputed by U.S. ally Turkey. The initial post was supposedly made in error by a staffer who was not part of the delegation, an official said.
