REMEMBER EARLIER THIS week when everyone was obsessed by the Laurel/ Yanny debate?
And then remember 24 hours later when everyone stopped caring?
Well, it seems like that particular memo never reached the Trump Administration, who took it upon themselves to release a video on the subject showing that they’re totally, you know, down with the kids.
Ivanka kicked off proceedings by posing the all-important Yanny/Laurel question before the likes of Kellyanne Conway, Sarah Huckabee Sandres, Mike Pence and the current President of the United States got in on the action.
And naturally, opinion has been mixed.
While someone people eye-rolled so hard they went momentarily blind, others were only delighted their President was in a position to prove he’s as hip as he is. Ahem.
just a quick update im still physically ill from the white house releasing a video about yanni vs laurel with them openly joking about how they mislead the public with lies and distraction and cant wait for us all to be obliterated by a meteor

The White House thinks making a Yanny/Laurel joke is cool, but they just acted like your grandma on Facebook.
