Former President Barack Obama took the stage in Pittsburgh on Thursday night to chide African-American men about their antipathy for Vice President Kamala Harris, at one point making a sophomoric joke about former President Donald Trump that backfired in the moment.
In the midst of admonishing Black men for not supporting Harris nearly as much as they did his 2008 and 2012 campaigns, President Obama joined a member of the audience in mocking Trump for his age. The 44th president was pontificating on the price of home goods under Harris compared to Trump when an attendee threw him off-topic. “Car seats, or diapers. I remember buying diapers,” Obama said with a head scratch. “I remember the first time I went in the store, right after Malia was born. I was like what! That’s how much diapers cost? I remember changing diapers.” He asked the audience. “You think Donald Trump ever changed a diaper?” prompting laughs from the crowd.
“No! No chance!” some members yelled. “His own!” shouted another. With a toothy smile and a point of his finger, Obama shot back, “I almost said that! I but I decided I shouldn’t say it.” MSNBC carried the speech live, giving liberal viewers every opportunity to laugh along with Obama’s crude joke, but the internet was not nearly as forgiving.
The first thing I thought of was Joe Biden.
