Donald Trump Jr. posted a meme on X that showed former President Barack Obama’s face placed on O.J. Simpson during the famous white Bronco police chase from 1994.
The post featured Obama as Simpson in the white Ford Bronco, with Donald Trump appearing to drive one of the police cars chasing behind. Trump Jr. shared the image with three laughing face emojis.
The meme sparked mixed reactions from users on the platform. Some questioned why there was such a focus on Obama instead of other current issues. Others criticized the post as another attempt to shift attention away from more pressing matters facing the Trump administration.
Critics suggested the timing of the post was meant to distract from ongoing discussions about Jeffrey Epstein files. One user commented that Trump would “do anything to distract from the Epstein files.” The post came as President Trump faces questions about his past connections to the convicted sex offender.
Social media users focus on Epstein files instead
Several users in the comment section ignored the Obama meme entirely and instead brought up the Epstein controversy. Sarah Larchmont posted a photo with text asking about “the Epstein files” and said she would not be distracted by other matters. Dan Bitzerian also commented that “Nobody cares about anything other than the Epstein files.”
The focus on Epstein files reflects current political tensions around the case. Trump’s Justice Department recently announced there is no Epstein “client list” and dismissed further investigation into the files. This decision has drawn criticism from some who want more transparency about Epstein’s connections.
President Trump has made claims that Obama, Biden, and James Comey “made up” the Epstein files. However, fact-checkers have rated this claim as false since neither Obama nor Biden was in office when the FBI investigated Epstein. The investigation into Epstein began during Trump’s own presidency.
The Republican Party currently shows division over whether more Epstein file details should be released. Some Republicans are pushing for more transparency about the case, while others support the Justice Department’s decision to close further investigations.
Trump Jr.’s Obama-focused posts have become a regular pattern on his social media accounts, reflecting the broader Trump family obsession with conspiracy theories. The latest meme continues his longstanding practice of targeting the former president with various conspiracy theories and political attacks. Critics argue these posts serve as distractions from current controversies facing the Trump family.
