Multiple citizens reportedly saw a man tap dancing on one of President Donald Trump’s landlines the other morning. After reviewing video surveillance, it has been discovered that the very man tapping his toes on Trump’s wire was former President Barack Obama.
Some citizens are surprised with Obama’s actions.
“This is what Obama is doing out of office?” gasped one woman with an obnoxious accent and a large floppy hat. “We need a president who has devoted all of his time to his citizens, like Trump has. He’s already passed so many travel bans,” she continued.
Other citizens claimed they were appalled that it had taken this long for his talent to go viral.
“I’m surprised that so many people have neglected to recognize his talent until now!” local resident Raul Abvias said.
The video of Obama is currently on social media and shows his appealing performance tapping on the wires. When questioned about his performance, Obama released a video to the public via Instagram.
“I love helping the public, and I am not afraid to step up to the task,” Obama said, simultaneously polishing his tap shoes.
“We wouldn’t want the reception getting through on those phones now, would we?” Obama heartily chuckled.
Many people were impressed with his performance.
“I have been trying to get in touch with Obama for days. He is very talented, and I would like to recruit him to teach in my studio, but he still has not gotten back to me. I hope he hasn’t been dancing on his own wires,” dance instructor Harry Hobful said.
Obama was questioned on his denial of Hobful’s offer.
“I am all for giving my time to those who need it, but I am not going to teach a dance class in Trump Tower, not for free at least. That’s a lot of work!” Obama said in response to rejecting Hobful’s offer.
Trump released multiple tweets in response to the trending topic.
“I honestly didn’t even know he was on my wires. I was still picking up phone calls all over the place. There was no interference. I was on my phone all day. I made lots of calls. Big calls and said lots of big words. It was great,” he tweeted.
An inside source says that on the day in question, Trump was on his private plane and didn’t take any calls.
