Within hours of President Trump's vow to ban the video app TikTok in the U.S, one of TikTok's most recognizable faces took to the platform to mock the chief of state's intentions.
Sarah Cooper, a comedian who rose to fame this year lip-syncing Trump's words in TikTok videos, posted a clip Friday impersonating the president while he discussed the app. Just before boarding a helicopter the noise of its blades threatening to drown him out Trump told reporters: "We're looking at TikTok. We may be banning TikTok, we may be doing some other things, there are a couple of options. But a lot of things are happening, so well see what happens. But we are looking at a lot of alternatives with respect to TikTok."
Cooper's take on the clip included a fan blowing her hair back for dramatic effect.

Aboard Air Force One on Friday night, Trump doubled down on his threat, telling reporters a TikTok ban was fast approaching and would be imposed by executive order or emergency economic powers.

(9,650 posts)I've said it before, and I'll say it again:
When they get ready to hang a portrait of Trump in the White House, I think it should be a portrait of Sarah Cooper instead of him.
For one thing, his portrait doesn't belong in the White House.
Secondly, she's the only way I can stand to listen to him.
How many times does she have to listen to him before she is able to do the videos? She should get a purple heart too.

And "emergency economic powers"?? I guess the only economic emergency at play here is the one that would arise for Trump himself if he loses the election.
