The TikTok, which was later shared by the President onto his Truth Social account, then shows Obama in an orange prison outfit standing behind bars.
Trump's now iconic anthem, YMCA by the Village People, can be heard playing throughout the AI clip.
The video is captioned: "No one is above the law!"
The line directly references a clip which is shown at the very start of the video of a genuine Obama speech where he tells a crowd at a Biden/Harris rally: "No one, especially the President, is above the law."

Trump has shared dozens of interview clips, news articles and statements in recent days, reigniting a long-standing feud between himself and Obama.
The latest controversy stems from an interview from spy chief Tulsi Gabbard where she claims Obama was behind a "years-long coup" against Trump.
Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, declassified hundreds of documents and emails on Friday over alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
One of the most damning allegations pointed towards Obama trying to subvert Trump's historic win through "manufactured and politicized intelligence".
Gabbard claims the 44th US President was likely trying to make it seem as if foreign bad actors influenced the result.
Trump ally calls for RELEASE of Epstein files but Don insists 'it's boring stuff' amid whirlwind of murder conspiracies
She said in a heated statement alongside the released documents: "Their egregious abuse of power and blatant rejection of our Constitution threatens the very foundation and integrity of our democratic republic.
"No matter how powerful, every person involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, to ensure nothing like this ever happens again."
Trump has posted at least 17 times about Gabbard's announcement over the weekend.
It follows years of speculation over potential Russian interference in US elections.
In 2021, it was even said that Vladimir Putin "authorized" and oversaw covert operations aimed at "denigrating Biden's candidacy", according to a bombshell declassified report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
The 114-page documents instead found there was "no indication of a Russian threat to directly manipulate the actual vote count through cyber means".
Putin has previously denied ever favouring Trump by trying to influence the US election.
Democrats have since claimed the report has only been released to deflect from the growing Jeffrey Epstein client list scandal.

Since Epstein's death by suicide in 2019, people have speculated that the convicted pedophile blackmailed prominent figures involved with his sick crimes.
The FBI has announced in recent weeks that any such "client list" showing who may have been implicated doesn't actually exist.
But this claim directly goes against what administration officials have previously said.
In an interview on Fox News back in February, close Trump aide Pam Bondi said the client list was "sitting on my desk right now to review."
She addressed the comment during a cabinet meeting recently and explained she meant the Epstein file as a whole rather than any list.
And despite further evidence - including video of Epstein's prison cell on the day of his death - being released, many are still calling for the entire case to be made public.
Many within Trump's own MAGA movement allege the files may have been withheld to protect big names.
Trump has been adamant that the documents don't need to be released as the relevant information is already clear.
He has called the files "made up" by his Democratic predecessors and reporters in the White House: "I don't understand why the Jeffrey Epstein case would be of interest to anybody.
"It's pretty boring stuff."
Trump has also unleashed a scathing rant on Truth Social, taking aim at those who he says are responsible for the ongoing issues.
The President hit out at "radical left democrats", who he claims peddled the theories about Epstein's death and the so-called client list.
He also fumed that his past MAGA supporters had "bought into this 'bulls***,' hook, line, and sinker".

Donald Trump goes golfing as major protests take place across Scotland
Mr Trump could be seen driving a golf buggy, flanked by a fleet of security personnel, as he played on the famous course which he bought in 2014. Protesters have insisted that Donald Trump is 'not welcome here' as the US president took to the golf course on the first full day of his visit to Scotland. Tight security around the Trump Turnberry course meant no demonstrators were seen when the president took to the greens on Saturday morning. Dressed in black, with a white cap that said USA on it, Mr Trump could be seen driving a golf buggy, flanked by a fleet of security personnel, as he played on the famous course which he bought in 2014. The outspoken Republican waved to journalists at one point, with hits including Billy Joel's Uptown Girl and Elaine Paige's rendition of Memory from the musical Cats heard playing from his entourage. But when asked about links to disgraced paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, the Simon and Garfunkel hit Bridge Over Troubled Water could be heard. However hundreds gathered in both Edinburgh and Aberdeen – near the site of Mr Trump's other Scottish golf resort – to make their opposition to the president known. As the visit got under way Scottish First Minister John Swinney – who is due to hold talks with the president later in the trip – announced public money to support a tournament at the Trump International golf links in Aberdeenshire. The 2025 Nexo Championship – previously known as the Scottish Championship – is set to take place there next month, supported by £180,000 of public funding. Mr Swinney said: 'The Scottish Government recognises the importance and benefits of golf and golf events, including boosting tourism and our economy.' But Scottish Green co-leader Patrick Harvie likened the awarding of public cash to the tournament to 'handing some pocket money to the school bully'. Mr Trump will head to his golf resort in Balmedie, Aberdeenshire later on in his five-day long private visit. As part of his trip he will also hold talks with Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, where the two men will refine a trade deal between the UK and the US that was agreed earlier this year. The president is also expected to talk trade with European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen on Sunday. But with no talks apparently scheduled for Saturday, the president, who is well known for his love of golf, was free to take to the famous course at Turnberry. A major security operation surrounded him, with police officers and military personnel seen scouring the grounds ahead of Mr Trump teeing off. After touching down in Scotland in Air Force One on Friday night, the president was seen on the course at Turnberry on Saturday morning – although security fencing had also been erected around the resort, with road closures also in place to help protect Mr Trump, who last year survived an assassination attempt. Sniffer dogs were seen patrolling the golf course, with the Navy carrying out sweeps in the water beside the seaside course, while Army vehicles were spotted on the nearby A77 road. Police Scotland has asked for support from other forces across the UK to bolster officer numbers for the high profile visit – with Mr Swinney appealing to people to protest 'peacefully and within the law'. In Aberdeen Green north east Scotland MSP Maggie Chapman told the crowd of hundreds: 'We stand in solidarity not only against Trump but against everything he and his politics stand for.' Speaking about the US president, Ms Chapman said: 'He believes that climate change isn't real, he believes that cutting services for those in the world with the least is the right thing to do. We say no to all of those things, not in our name, never in our name.' Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

With Mr Trump having last year been convicted by a New York jury of falsifying business records, she said the president was a 'convicted felon'. And she told the PA news agency: 'He is not welcome in Scotland, he is certainly not welcome in Aberdeenshire. We know that he is a convicted felon. 'We also know that all of the promises he has repeatedly made to Scotland have come to nothing, there hasn't been the development of jobs or houses that he promised when he opened his course in Aberdeenshire a few years ago.' Mr Harvie was also critical of the president, telling PA: 'He's attacking our renewables industry once again, one of the success stories of Scotland, and he is trying to attack and undermine it. 'And that is after having trashed part of our natural environment on the Aberdeenshire coast to build his golf resort.' Anita Bhadani was one of those who organised the Stop Trump Coalition protest outside the US Consulate General's office in Edinburgh. She told PA: 'We are really excited, across this whole weekend, there's so many campaign groups turning out in the streets, tacking in action in their communities or at rallies like this – it's kind of like a carnival of resistance.' She said Mr Trump's 'huge promises' of creating thousands of jobs through development around his Scottish golf courses had not come to pass. A number of speakers addressed the crowd, condemning President Trump, including one who chanted 'death to the IDF'.

Allianz Life: Insurance giant says most US customer data stolen in cyber-attack
Hackers have stolen personal information of a majority of insurance firm Allianz Life's 1.4 million customers in North America, its parent company said."On July 16, 2025, a malicious threat actor gained access to a third-party, cloud-based CRM system used by Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life)," Allianz said in a statement to the BBC. The German parent company added that the hackers were "able to obtain personally identifiable data related to the majority of Allianz Life's customers, financial professionals, and select Allianz Life employees, using a social engineering technique".The data breach was only related to Allianz Life, according to the company. The insurance company disclosed the data breach in a legal filing with the attorney general in the US state of Maine. It did not specify how many people had been affected. In the statement, the insurance company said it had taken "immediate action" to contain the breach and had notified the FBI. It said that there was "no evidence the Allianz Life network or other company systems were accessed, including our policy administration system". Allianz - which has over 125 million customers globally - added that it was in the process of contacting and assisting the individuals affected by the data breach. A social engineering cyber-attack is when hackers pressure or trick users into giving away sensitive information, such as by impersonating a trusted company or person.
