In his most recent video, he has the President discussing the parody musician Weird Al, of whom he imagines Trump is a fan.
'Folks, we love Weird Al! We love Weird Al Yankovic. Weird Al, an American original. He's got more money than sin.
'More money... I don't know, maybe he's got more money than me, I don't know if he's got more money than me, but he's got a lot of it. He's got a lot of spunk and a lot of talent.
