TI posts video that shows a Melania Trump look-alike stripping, drawing ire from the first lady's spokeswoman

Melania Trump recently called herself “one of the most bullied people in the world,” and a new video short from T.I. featuring a nude Melania look-alike dancing suggestively — okay, way more than “suggestively” — on the desk in the Oval Office probably didn’t change her mind.

“How is this acceptable?” Melania’s spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham tweeted Saturday evening, adding the hashtags “#disgusting” and “#boycottT.I.”

The fuss began when the rapper tweeted out Friday a promotional video for his new album “Dime Trap.” The clip is only a minute long, but it packs a lot of shock into those brief 60 seconds.

It opens with real footage of President Trump walking alone to a helicopter. Dubbed over the video is a voice-over: “Melania Trump did not go to Mar-a-Lago with the president this weekend, which has a lot of people wondering.”

The chopper takes off, and the scene shifts to T.I., clad in a sharp blue suit, wandering around the Oval Office. He stares out the window for a moment, then walks to the desk and places his hand on it, as if the weight of the world is on his shoulders.

Then, a Melania look-alike struts in, wearing only heels and a green jacket emblazoned with the words “I really don’t care do u?” — the same jacket the actual Mrs. Trump wore on a visit the U.S.-Mexico border, where migrant children were separated from their families due to the Trump administration’s immigration policies.

As T.I. lights a cigar, the Melania look-alike drops her jacket, revealing that she is wearing nothing underneath. She then begins dancing, climbing on the desk and tugging at T.I.'s tie.

The video ends with a montage of scenes, including Trump riding around in a golf cart wearing a MAGA hat, as well as the Melania look-alike spray-painting red X’s over the eyes of a portrait of Trump. Finally, the video cuts to a black screen with text promoting T.I.'s new album.

The tweet that accompanied the video had a simple message: “Dear 45, I ain’t Kanye. 😳” Superstar Kanye West recently visited the White House for a bizarre conversation with Trump.

When West originally expressed his support for Trump during the midst of a strange Twitter storm that he claimed was a real-time philosophy book, T.I. took him to task. The “Rubberband Man” rapper is a longtime critic of the administration, and he and West traded verses espousing their point of view on “Ye vs. the People (starring TI as the People).”

For example, West rapped, “See that’s the problem with this . . . nation / All Blacks gotta be Democrats, man, we ain’t made it off the plantation.” T.I. responded, “You representin' dudes just seem crude and coldhearted / With blatant disregard for the people who put you in position.”

Though the two had been civil, T.I. appeared to sever his relationship with West after the White House meeting.

“All I can say is … I’ve reached my limits,” T.I. wrote on Instagram. “At one time it was a pleasure to work alongside you . . . Now, I’m ashamed to have ever been associated with you.”
