The White House has welcomed President Donald Trump back from Wednesday’s NATO summit in the Netherlands with a cringe-inducing social media video set to the 2010 song “Hey Daddy (Daddy’s Home)” by Usher.

The clip, a montage of Trump stepping out of Air Force One back on American soil followed by choice scenes from the summit, is a reference to NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte jokingly nicknaming the president “daddy” during their sitdown yesterday.
