A bizarre video was uploaded on US President Donald Trump’s Twitter account which included clips of himself edited along with Hans Zimmer’s score from The Dark Knight Rises. According to BuzzFeed, Warner Bros and WarnerMedia are in a process of filing a copyright claim in order to have the video removed from Twitter.

The video has a two minute clip of Donald Trump meeting with foreign politicians like North Korea’s King Jong Un and Jair Bolsonaro of Brazil. The footage is intercut by the footage of liberals from Barack Obama to Rose O’Donnell and Amy Schumer. The video didn’t have a single dialogue but features a text which says “Why do we fall?”

“First they ignore you,” the video reads. “Then they laugh at you, then they call you racist.”
