Twitter has removed a video shared by the Trump campaign, which superimposed President Trump’s head on the body of a 49ers player as he jumped over an opposing player who was depicted as the coronavirus.
The play happened in the first quarter of the Monday Night Football game between the 49ers and the Eagles. Brandon Aiyuk, a rookie receiver for the 49ers, made an especially athletic play when he leaped over Eagles defender Marcus Epps on his way to scoring a touchdown.
In the meme, Trump’s head is superimposed on Aiyuk and the coronavirus is superimposed on Epps. The meme then concluded with the popular video of the protester screaming at Trump’s 2016 inauguration.
