Peter Serafinowicz has been dropping ‘Trump Dubs’ online since around Christmas 2015, with a few variations thrown in for good measure. It started with a very sophisticated version of the Donald with an English accent, later adapted to a tough guy cockney accent that would make Guy Ritchie excited. But since then, a clear front runner in the voice over game has been declared and his name is Sassy Trump.
The key behind any of these Trump Dubs is that they are indeed Trump’s words, not some sort of Bad Lip Reading spin off that goes off the rails. You truly don’t have to change much of what he says, as Serafinowicz proves, and some big names are becoming fans:
Sassy Trump is my new favourite thing. https://t.co/JqqpzMrVzs

I've watched @serafinowicz's #SassyTrump video 15 times now. I'm despairing of anything being funnier this election. Holy moley.

This made me laugh out loud. SASSY TRUMP. His own words dubbed in a sassy voice. A must watch. https://t.co/lyX6OQXBV1

It might seem like a weird hobby to have, but at least people are enjoying it. Just imagine how far it will go if we end up getting President Trump in November. Serafinowicz might start crying tears of joy, at least you’d think they’d be tears of joy.
The latest of the Sassy Trump entries is above and Serafinowicz has put together the entire bunch in the handy playlist below. I don’t know you can agree with Patton Oswalt that this is the funniest part of the election, though. We’re spoiled for choice.
