In the midst of backlash against Donald Trump for a blatantly racist video targeting the Obamas, Couric shared a message on Threads to commend the former president for his "class."
Obama—who has not directly responded to since-deleted Truth Social video—instead took a moment to send his best wishes to the athletes representing Team USA at the 2026 Winter Olympics, writing in part, "I'm so proud of you. Your talent and perseverance have brought you to this moment, and Michelle and I will be joining Americans from across the country cheering you on."
"So proud that you were our President," she wrote.
"This is so disgusting," she wrote on Instagram shortly after the post was removed from Trump's page following backlash from politicians across party lines.

He further insisted that the video was supposed to be a "take off The Lion King," and that he is the "least racist" president the U.S. has seen "in a long time."
