Barack Obama was met with huge cheers and laughter after he cracked an unmissable joke about Donald Trump that people think should be part of the 'historical record'.
The former president took to the stage at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Tuesday (August 20), to discuss the future of the country and show his support for democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
“America is ready for a new chapter," he told the crowd. "America’s ready for a better story. We are ready for a President Kamala Harris.”
As part of his speech, Obama made reference to Harris' competitor, Trump, as he dubbed him a '78-year-old billionaire who hasn’t stopped whining about his problems since he rode down his golden escalator nine years ago'.

Obama didn't hold back as he critiqued Trump's approach to his campaign, saying: "It’s been a constant stream of gripes and grievances that’s actually gotten worse now that he’s afraid of losing to Kamala."
But while Obama's words related to Trump's actions, there was one particular gesture that viewers couldn't help but recognize as a reference to his anatomy.
“The childish nicknames and crazy conspiracy theories and weird obsession with crowd size,” he said, giving his hands an unmissable and meaningful glance as he held them a few inches apart during the words 'crowd size'.

Those just listening to Obama's speech probably wouldn't have thought twice about the comment, but it was that gesture that gave the remark a whole new meaning.
Twitter users flooded to the site to comment on the moment, with one insisting that it should never be forgotten.
"Uh, uh... I'm aware I'm a degenerate and may misread things as such, but err... did Obama just use his hands to gesture that Trump has a tiny d**k while mocking him for being obsessed with crowd size?" one person asked, adding: "Cause uh, I'm writing that into the historical record regardless."
Another viewer shared a clip of Obama's speech and praised him for 'perfect comedic delivery', while a third responded: "Obama hit the former guy with a d**k joke at the DNC and it was worth the price of admission."

Though the comment about 'crowd' size was the highlight for a lot of viewers, Obama didn't stop there.
He continued: “It just goes on and on. The other day, I heard someone compare Trump to the neighbor who keeps running his leaf blower outside your window every minute of every day.”
The former president's speech was met with huge cheers and applause, and he highlighted his support for Harris as he said she was 'not the neighbor running the leaf blower'.

"She’s the neighbor rushing over to help when you need a hand," he said.
