Now that Donald Trump is finally president, it’s practically guaranteed that we’re going to see nonstop comedy at his expense. All the late night shows, SNL, and plenty of others have been mocking Trump since he started his political adventure, and they’re not going to stop now that he’s actually doing the job he wanted. In fact, it might be even easier now, considering the new things that pop up in the news each day. Add to that Twitter outbursts and official statements, and you end up with a treasure trove of material.

But forget about the late shows in America for a moment and just watch the following video sent to Donald Trump all the way from the Netherlands.

If there’s one Trump-inspired satire you should absolutely watch, it’s the one at the end of this post. Created by Dutch satirical TV show Zondag earlier this week, the video is a perfect welcome for the newly inaugurated President.

The video was created in a way that would appeal to him, according to what presenter Arjen Lubach says in the clip’s introduction — that’s the Dutch-language part at the beginning of the clip.

A man speaking English with both Trump and Dutch accents introduces the Netherlands to the new American president. The Trump impersonation is perfect. The tone of his voice… the choice of words… they’re all going to remind you instantly of the president and his campaign. And it’s hilarious.

The point of the clip is pretty simple. If Trump is all about “America First,” then the Netherlands should be second. The clip has already gone viral, having been viewed almost 2 million times on YouTube. Watch it below.
