Obama draws the line at attacks on the family members of politicians.

Obama told The New Yorker that he's tried to brush aside Trump's ongoing snark about him not only by the president but also by his current cabinet.

However, he draws the line when it comes to his family and the president's detractors.

"I don't take it personally," Obama revealed to the outlet.

"I mean, I'm always offended when my wife and kids get dragged into things, because they didn't choose this...That's a line that even people whose politics I deeply reject, I would expect them to care about. I would never talk about somebody’s family in that way," he explained, referring to his wife Michelle and adult daughters Malia and Sasha.

Obama Slams Trump Appearing to Dump Human Waste on Protesters in AI Video

Obama was highly critical of an AI video Trump shared in October appearing to dump feces on protesters from a fighter jet.

Instead, it's Trump's growing use of AI that has President number 44 upset.

Obama slammed Trump for posting videos treating the Iran war "like a video game" and showing "excrement dumped on ordinary citizens."

The latter referred to an October 2025 AI-generated clip featuring Trump wearing a crown while seated inside a fighter jet emblazoned with the words "King Trump." The video dropped just after the "No Kings" protests, which bashed the president earlier in the day.

The jet then appeared to dump human waste onto demonstrators gathered in what resembled New York City's Times Square, including a figure seemingly modeled after liberal influencer Harry Sisson, while Kenny Loggins' hit Danger Zone from the original Top Gun movie played.

It even elicited a response from the administration after Sisson took to X, writing, "Can a reporter please ask Trump why he posted an AI video of himself dropping poop on me from a fighter jet? That would be great, thanks."

Vice President JD Vance replied, "I’ll ask him for you, Harry."

The White House's 'hype film' about wins in Iran featured scenes from Hollywood movies, including 'Iron Man.'

The White House took a victory lap on X in a March 5 that mixed clips from video games like Call of Duty with scenes from iconic Hollywood action and war films to hype U.S. strikes on Iran, and was captioned "Justice the American Way."

CNN's Jake Tapper said the White House was treating a decision to go to war "like it was a video game," but "it's the most consequential video a president can make."

Tapper then referred to the video, which he said could be described as a "hype film" in the most "charitable way," while going on to read critical posts.

One person commented, "Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but war isn't a video game. The consequences of war are final. I wish we didn't treat it with such a cavalier approach."
