If you didn't already miss him.

President Donald Trump's long-sought Fourth of July celebration—featuring military tanks, flyovers, and perks for Trump campaign donors—finally came to fruition with his July 4th "Salute to America" event.

Former White House photographer for President Barack Obama, Pete Souza, is no stranger to trolling Trump, which he routinely does simply by posting photos of President Obama on Instagram to draw the stark contrast between Obama and the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.


And this Fourth of July was no different, as Souza proved with photos taken of former President Obama celebrating the nation's independence when he was president.

Including:

"July 4, 2009: Watching the fireworks from the roof of the White House."

"July 4, 2012: Greeting military families on the South Lawn of the White House."

"July 4, 2010: Uncle Sam."

"July 4, 2013: Listening to the Marine Band before making remarks to military families."

People couldn't help but draw contrast to that of Donald Trump's.

And everyone made it clear how much they missed the Obamas.

Thank you, Mr. Souza, for capturing these moments.

You can purchase Pete Souza's book of photos comparing President Obama to Donald Trump, Shade: A Tale of Two Presidents, here.

Elon Musk Schooled After Comparing Obama-Era Democrats To Far-Right German Party

Billionaire Elon Musk was criritized after he attempted to equate the far-right Alternative for Deutschland (AfD) party to Democrats at the beginning of Barack Obama's presidency, and was swiftly fact-checked—even by X's own AI chatbot.

Afd is known for its opposition to the European Union (EU) and immigration to Germany. The party presented itself as an economic liberal, soft Euroskeptic and conservative movement upon its establishment in 2013 but has since moved further to the right, expanding its policies under successive leaderships to include opposition to immigration, Islam, and the EU.
