The pandemic is (not) very nice.
Fake Kazakh TV presenter and Sacha Baron Cohen alter ego Borat Sagdiyev joined Twitter to promote his sequel and slam President Trump for risking (Borat voice) his life.
Under a verified account that started tweeting at some point on Friday and continuing into Saturday, Borat (either Cohen or Cohen and a group of writers) began sarcastically praising President Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic.
“Premiere Trump true leader - he have prove himself stronger than more than 200,000 of his American subjects!” the account tweeted.
“Trump so strong he did not even need to drink bleach to stay alive! Trump is great benefactor! All Americans will also have the drug he have a stake in,” he added.
The account also appeared to be live-tweeting responses to a Trump interview on Fox News.
“Trump correct, there were many thousands of people cheering outside hospital when they knew he was dying inside,” the account said.
“Borat” also managed to get a few shots in regarding other allegations surrounding Trump.
“Trump say he will donate his plasma, he very kind. He have donate his body fluids for many years and he always like to keep it secret,” the comedian said.
Lastly, the character put a new spin on Trump’s Saturday address from one of the balconies at the White House.
“Premiere Trump just appear on Whitehouse balcony where he took off his mask and threw into crowd for one lucky patriot to wear! Trump delivered powerful message to 20,000 of his supporters then told them to go back to their communities and spread what they got from him.”
Borat’s latest adventure, reportedly titled “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm,” will be released later in October.
