Sarah Cooper has carved out a niche space on TikTok, merging comedy and politics by voicing over Trump’s comments

Poppy Noor

Sarah Cooper never expected to become internet famous during a pandemic, but now she is a viral TikTok celebrity who makes people laugh without saying anything. How? She lets Trump say it all for her: Cooper lip-syncs Trump’s worst comments from press conferences.

Her recent clips include her dubbing Elon Musk explaining without embarrassment the decision to name his child X Æ A-12, but her first viral moment came following that press conference, when Trump suggested Americans ingest disinfectant to cure the coronavirus.

As soon as she heard it, she knew it was comedy gold. “The thing of trying to put light into your body and inject[ing] household cleaner into your veins – it was so visual to me, and I thought, ‘I have to make this’,” she tells me.

Within hours of the press conference Cooper had uploaded the TikTok video, simply captioned “How to medical” and watched as millions of laughs and likes came rolling in.

5. OMG.

What a stupid sack of $hit that orange turd is. He is so unbelievably stupid, that, it's funny. Very cleverly done, Sarah Cooper.

6. When Trump says his shit...it is just rambling nonsense..

Sarah Cooper on the other hand, brings out the craziness with her perfectly timed expressions and body movements. I'm hopeful the emphasis will bring Americans to their senses.

8. Bookmarking.

I wanna come back to this when I can turn the sound up.

On edit -

I came back and turned the sound up. She's QUITE good! Only bad part is what she was lipsynching to! I have heard MORE than enough of his shitty voice and shitty ideas and shitty attitudes and shitty biases and shitty lying-lying-lying to last me 50 lifetimes.

Whenever it is that he's finally gone (preferably ALL gone, silenced, so we don't even have to hear from him anymore, much less see him) I will celebrate.

11. She is awesome..

The little details she enacts, like sniffing the white board marker, or when she plays a bewildered individual referenced by Shitler. Comedy gold!

These make him sound even more stupid and crazy, if that's even possible.

19. Any idea why these videos won't play ?

Is there a special viewer needed ?

[AnotherDreamWeaver]

20. I watched them all in Safari, but when I changed to firefox and logged in

the OP and post #9 didn't play. However the top video in post #10 did play, I didn't check the rest. (I allow cookies on firefox and don't allow on safari.)
