Few were surprised this weekend when President Donald Trump posted a stream of erratic tweets attacking everyone from former President Barack Obama to CBS News's Norah O'Donnell.

Among the tweets was a video of Trump's face superimposed onto that of actor Bill Pullman who played the President of the United States in the acclaimed 1996 action film Independence Day.

Pullman's character, President Thomas J. Whitmore, gives a rousing speech near the climax of the film in which he describes fighting for the right "to live, to exist."

The video tweeted by Trump shows other Republican figureheads like Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Vice President Mike Pence listening in adoration, presumably to make Trump seem inspiring.

Watch below.

The bizarre tweet racked up views and reactions, even from Pullman himself, who said:

"My voice belongs to no one but me, and I'm not running for president — this year."

He wasn't the only one to respond.

Legendary actor Vivica A. Fox called out Trump's lack of courage readily displayed by the President in Independence Day.

Others felt the same.




Trump did Bill Pullman dirty with this video.



Remember when things weren't awful?

People Share Their Most Embarrassing Small Town Stories

I lived most of my life in a very small town in Northern Maine. There were about 200 kids in my high school and there were 56 kids in my graduating class—we were tied with the class of 1961 for the largest class ever.

When the primary employer in town—Pinkham Lumber Mill—shut down, the town got even smaller. Now the senior class is considered large if it reaches double digits.

Fox News Correspondent Explains Why Signal Group Chat Was 'More Serious' Than We Even Thought

Fox News’s chief national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin shared concerning insight on the "classified" military strategy information that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth shared in a Signal group chat with Republican President Donald Trump’s high level officials, and inadvertently, with The Atlantic editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg.

Goldberg released a full transcript of the Signal thread, revealing that officials discussed military strategy tied to their war strikes on Houthi rebels in Yemen, which Hegseth downplayed and accused the media of "peddling hoaxes," claiming that no "war plans" were shared.

Woman Sparks Debate After Revealing Red Flag That Shows A Husband 'Doesn't Care' About His Wife

When we love someone enough to commit to a long-term relationship or marriage with them, we sometimes fall into a trap of wearing rose-colored glasses, now often referred to as "girlfriend goggles" or "boyfriend goggles," and ignoring the signs that the relationship might not be as perfect as we'd like to imagine it is.

This is especially true for people who ignore the blatant red flags in their relationships, like many women who have confided on social media that they don't think their husbands even like them.
