Nicky Minaj as White House Press Secretary? · Breaking Absurdity — Today's Top Headlines That Can't Be Unheard. Brought to you by @ItsNotSatire.

• 0:00
  The White House makes a shocking announcement
• 0:01
  about the next press secretary. We love Trump.
• 0:05
  And as the midterms loom, people start imagining
• 0:07
  the White House upon Trump's departure. Careful
• 0:09
  with that one, it's heavy. Yeah, got it. Nicki
• 0:17
  Minaj has been traveling with Trump today, prompting
• 0:19
  the White House to muse about her serving as
• 0:21
  press secretary. But what we do know is Nicki
• 0:24
  Minaj is giving the president a new ass to talk
• 0:26
  about. By the way, I looked at one hell of a
• 0:29
  beautiful ass before Nicki Minaj. Vivek Ramaswamy
• 0:34
  was seen rapping to Eminem. And Susan Dell makes
• 0:40
  some cameo appearances in the Oval Office. Welcome
• 0:43
  to the MAGA celebrity circus. Good afternoon.
• 0:46
  Thank you for coming. Leading off today, the
• 0:48
  headwinds appear to be against Donald Trump,
• 0:50
  with Americans disapproving of his handling of
• 0:52
  practically every issue imaginable. But Donald
• 0:55
  Trump has a rather different way of looking at
• 0:57
  the numbers. I'm polling at 99 % in Israel. But
• 1:01
  with the midterms approaching, Republicans have
• 1:03
  a rather more immediate problem persuading American
• 1:06
  voters. Vivek Rambaswamy is giving it everything
• 1:09
  he's got on the campaign trail. He's starting
• 1:15
  to look almost as desperate for street cred as
• 1:18
  Cash Patel. And things are looking bleak enough
• 1:20
  that the internet is already imagining what the
• 1:22
  Oval Office might look like when Trump's finally
• 1:24
  gone. Careful with that one, it's heavy. Yeah,
• 1:30
  got it. So Trump is trying just about anything
• 1:34
  to get attention back on his side. From taking
• 1:37
  suspiciously keen interest in Senator John Husted's
• 1:40
  ass. I looked at his ass and I've never done
• 1:42
  that with a man before. It's true. To bringing
• 1:44
  out the celebrity heavyweights. We love Trump.
• 1:52
  We love Trump. We love, we love Michigan. That's
• 1:59
  right, Nicki Minaj was singing Traveling with
• 2:01
  the President today. Here she is stepping off
• 2:03
  Air Force One, having apparently taken the opportunity
• 2:05
  to give herself a little tour of the presidential
• 2:08
  aircraft. Behind her, one staff member is struggling
• 2:16
  to maintain his professional composure. She was
• 2:22
  on her way to speak at Trump's rally, where the
• 2:24
  President found a rather unusual way to introduce
• 2:26
  his special guest. Remember, he'd only just been
• 2:29
  discussing Senator John Huston's backside. Then
• 2:35
  briefly tried to reinforce his heterosexuality
• 2:38
  and somehow managed to segue smoothly from John
• 2:44
  Huston's ass to Nicki Minaj's ass. And with that
• 3:00
  warm presidential introduction, Nicki took the
• 3:02
  stage. And we're not going to give up because
• 3:06
  we want our children to grow up in a place where
• 3:09
  we can be proud of. We want people to leave the
• 3:12
  children alone, leave them out of it, right?
• 3:15
  Well, if that's Nicki's goal, I think she might
• 3:17
  have hooked her anchor to the wrong candidate.
• 3:19
  Nicki, ever heard of the Epstein files? If you
• 3:22
  run again, I will support you again. Now on the
• 3:30
  face of it, bringing out Nicki Minaj looks like
• 3:32
  an attempt to inject some celebrity star power
• 3:34
  into Trump's campaign and energizes MAGA base.
• 3:38
  But there may be another opportunity here. That's
• 3:41
  White House Communications Director Stephen Chung
• 3:43
  posting this clip of Nikki praising Trump and
• 3:45
  prompting speculation about her next career move.
• 3:58
  An interesting business strategy. Go bankrupt,
• 4:00
  then rebrand it as a success story. Well, based
• 4:10
  on that logic, the first step is for America
• 4:13
  to go bankrupt so Trump can rebuild it. And it
• 4:16
  looks like we're already on our way with the
• 4:18
  record 40 trillion debt that Trump's helped us
• 4:20
  build. Anyway, what people noticed most was what
• 4:24
  Stephen Chung said on this clip. He said, Ladies
• 4:26
  and gentlemen, I think we have found the new
• 4:28
  White House press secretary. We assume or perhaps
• 4:32
  hope that Stephen Chung is joking because given
• 4:35
  the recent revolving door at the White House
• 4:36
  press podium, including Katie Zechariah's brief
• 4:39
  five day tenure, we wouldn't necessarily dismiss
• 4:42
  the possibility that Stephen is at least entertaining
• 4:44
  the idea. What we can say for certain is that
• 4:47
  the internet had some fun with the suggestion.
• 4:50
  Here's the moment reimagined with Stephen Chung
• 4:52
  as Jabba the Hutt sitting alongside Nicki Minaj.
• 4:56
  In a galaxy not so far away, the empire apparently
• 4:59
  is still hiring. And the internet was quick to
• 5:02
  imagine what it would look like if Nicki Minaj
• 5:04
  was press secretary. Good afternoon. Thank you
• 5:08
  for coming. I'm here to set the record straight.
• 5:11
  We are going to make Washington fabulous again.
• 5:14
  My plan is simple. More glitter, less gridlock.
• 5:18
  Thank you. God bless America. And here's another
• 5:22
  one. But Nicki Minaj was not the only mega celebrity
• 5:36
  to steal a show on the internet this week. One
• 5:38
  of our favorite characters has come back for
• 5:40
  a cameo, Susan Dell. She's appearing in a new
• 5:43
  AI dance video almost daily now. I don't know
• 5:49
  about you, but I love seeing Susan Dell in all
• 5:51
  these strange situations. If I could just ask
• 5:54
  her one question, how does she dance like that
• 5:57
  in those heels? That's pretty amazing. And yesterday
• 6:02
  we covered Barack Obama's rally where he made
• 6:04
  a joke that said that Trump's White House looked
• 6:07
  like Saddam Hussein opened a cheesecake factory
• 6:09
  there. Well, one AI creator took this literally
• 6:12
  and made quite an epic piece.
