Apart from his several political policies, especially concentrated on immigrants, the president was always an object of mimicry and ridicule for his oration.

In the video the former US president can be seen saying, “See I can't see it very well", “But this election is now over, Congress has certified the results", and then takes back his words by saying “I don't wanna say the election is over".
The video seems to be a presidential address that the then president was recording following the US president's summon wherein insurrectionist mob showed up and stormed the U.S. Capitol.
The mob was made of overwhelming longtime Trump supporters, including Republican Party officials, GOP political donors, far-right militants, white supremacists, members of the military and adherents of the QAnon myth that the government is secretly controlled by a cabal of Satan-worshiping pedophile cannibals. Records show that some were heavily armed and included convicted criminals, such as a Florida man recently released from prison for attempted murder.
Donald Trump's political positions have been described as populist, protectionist, isolationist, and nationalist. He won the 2016 United States presidential election as the Republican nominee against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton but lost the popular vote, becoming the first US president with no prior military or government service.
